It's all about the 'NEW'

 

'HAPPY NEW YEAR' My crafty friends.
Hope you all had a fabulous Christmas/New Year break
and ready to get creative once more.

 I am Hosting the first Challenge for 2017 over at

Just Us Girls and it is our 'Word Week'

For this I chose 'NEW'  which can mean so many different things!

New beginnings, new house, new baby,
 new craft products (I am sure we all have them)

or go with a new technique. Your choice!

I went with the 'new products' I received recently.

A Big Welcome to our first Guest for 2017
Shawna Standish from The Grand Stampede

 

 

My card is fairly cas choosing a 'recently new'
stencil and sentiment stamps.
The stencil is ARTplorations Happy Flowers
and sentiments STAMPlorations Floral Bliss
Card base is Tangarine cs
My focal point has been cut with a stitched die
from white cs. I inked my stencil image with
Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn and
SU Calypso Coral and touches of Iridescent Medium.
I sponged the background of the flowers with
a wet baby wipe dipped in left over Calypso Coral.
Finished with some pearls to match.
