Hi all,
Well its Wednesday again and so that means its time for a new challenge over at My Mums Craft Shop. This week our theme is :-
Mix & Match
We want to see you mix and match those designer papers on your card, no taking the easy option of co-ordinating papers from the same the pad.
This weeks sponser is the fabulous
And Elisabeth has offered the prize of 2 Digi images of your choice.
Now I have to admit I didnt like this challenge one little bit at all, when I make a card I like to use papers from the same the pad. That way all the colours, texture, patterns, thickness match and it makes it easy to put your card together, however I suppose we all need to move away from our comfort zone every now and then!!!.
So I chose my image first, knowing who our sponser was and being as I didnt have any of her digi images I decided to use one of my fave stamps from her Sweet Art Ebony range called Sweet & Sassy. I have had her for ages and orginally got her from Sugar Nellie/Funky Kits she was one of my first SN stamps. Then I sat there and spent ages trying to match papers together and eventually I was happy with what I had chosen.
My checked paper is from MME Stella & Rose- Gertie, Flowery paper is Basic Grey - Green at Heart & the stripy paper is First Edition - Love Letters. I added a bit of flowery ribbon and some flowers made using my new fave punches from Nellie Snellen, Craftwork Cards fancy sentiment and pearls to finish.
Well I hope you like my creation, do pop on over to the challenge blog and join in with this weeks challenge and also check out my team mates fabulous creations too - I dont know if that have had as much trouble as me with this challange, I hope not!!.
Thanks for popping by my blog today
