I am Hosting this weeks Colour Challenge over at Just Us Girls
and chose some lovely pastels.
I have used basic white card stock
and choosing a simple stamp from the
STAMPlorations Floral Bliss stamp set.
I painted the heat embossed flowers in soft pastel metallic colours
surrounding them with a silver shimmer
This was cut from a Spellbinder die.
My background is lightly stenciled in yellow.
Sentiment is from STAMPlorations Fond Expressions 2
inked with SU Calypso Coral.
Finished with some sequins and gems.
Hop over and see what our April Guest Laurie
and the Jugheads have made and I hope
you get time to play this week at JUGS
You could be chosen as Chic of the Week
and then in the running for
Guest Designer in June.
