My final post as this month's Guest Designer for Just Us Girls :( This week it's a photo inspiration:
The starting point for my card was the chevrons on the wall. Followed by the flower. I used Weathered Wood and Tumbled Glass Distress Inks on the chevron stencil à la Tim Holtz, then stamped the flower on some spare card and sloshed a bit of Tumbled Glass on, then fussy cut it. I drew in a stem and stamped the HB2U either side of the stem then drew leaves around them.
I'm entering my card into Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes, and Simon Says Work It Wednesday, where it's also Anything Goes.
Pop on over the Just Us Girls and join in the challenge (thank for having me, ladies!).
