A Simple Hello!

It's time for our New Challenge over at  Cut It Up

and we are looking for you to 

add embellishments on your creation.

Are you one that when you get a new 'something'

you just have to use it straight away?

This is how my card came about.

Tim's Abstract Florals had just landed in my mailbox

and I saw a card by a fellow teamie (Gerda)

that inspired me to get it inky. Now you have two cards

using the same set to be inspired by.

Here's how this card was created - 

I started by inking the flower in 

VersaFine Nocturne and heat embossed clear.

Die cut another inked flower for a mask which was used

so I could stencil the background from AALL&Create

 with Tim's oxide inks.

Die cut the bottom corner with Seth Apter's Splosh dies.

Added another die cut and inked.

 Popped the circle with the 'Hello' from the set.

The background for that is smooched in

same colours as the stencilled one.

Inked up the flower with bright colours,

some stamping in the corners and finished with

lots of white posca splatters.

Attached to white card base.

This was 'so fun' 

Head over and see how my talented teamies 

added embellishments to their makes and

come join in with yours to our gallery.

Hope to see you there.

I'm not a fan of pumpkin so 

I reach out for my favourite stamp/die set

Oh So Grateful from STAMPlorations

at this time of year.

A pretty simple card - colouring my

die cut pumpkin with ox inks,

adding some splatters and a strip of

coloured dp to add the sentiment.

It was inked with Versafine Clair Pinecone

(as was the pumpkin) which is very dark

 and heat embossed clear.

Adhered the pumpkin to some sissel

which you can't see

as a bed for it to sit on.

That's it!
