May Blog Hop

Welcome to another Stampers Anonymous Team Blog Hop! This month we have a Sketch Challenge. You can make the complete circuit and see all the lovely creations by following the links at the end of each post.

Here is my take on the sketch:

I was a bit devoid of inspiration today, so I CaSED a card by the very clever Teneale Williams. I LOVE her card, and of course mine hasn't turned out nearly as gorgeous. Oh, well! We can't all be card-making geniuses!!

I stamped the largest flower and some leaves from Painted Poppies on my piece of Whisper White cardstock in Memento Black ink. I used a post-it note mask so that the leaves would be behind the flowers. I coloured the whole piece using Blends and then gave it the Subtle Embossing folder treatment. I then used the small ink spatter stamp to give it a bit of a distressed look, using Gray Granite ink.

I think the Braided Linen trim is the perfect accompaniment. I also gave my sentiment a little extra detail using the Stitched So Sweetly dies.

Well, that’s all from me. Thanks for stopping by! Click on the button below to move to the next stop:
