Flowers 'Bloom'

Hi there Crafty Ones - I am here today for my first card

Designing with the Anything Goes with Dies Team

 over at Happy Little Stampers 

You will have seen my first card
for the Water Colour Challenge a few days ago.
Now you get a bonus seeing 2 cards

a month for Happy Little Stampers. Yay!

Still a Happy Little Stamper -
just jumped ship in a new direction!

I was looking for something a little different for the background
of my floral image and remembered my Twinkling H2O's so
that is what I used - Millard Green and did a waterwash
getting an ombre effect using watercolour paper.
 Did the same for my Kaisercraft leaves.
The tiny flowers are from
 CUTplorations Trendy-Spring-Blooms-Dies
cutting several and mounting.
Sentiment is from STAMPlorations Bloom-Happy
Added a few SU gems and some variegated cotton
and my card is done.

IF YOU USE STAMPS BY HAPPY LITTLE STAMPERS 

AND YOU ARE OUR RANDOM WINNER, 

YOUR PRIZE WILL BE DOUBLED!

Check out all the details HERE.

Don't forget to check out what my Team Mates created
and come join us this month.
Love to see you in the Gallery.

Case-ing Therese Calvird

I had the pleasure of meeting the 

Outstandingly Creative Therese Calvird a few months ago

and just love her work and videos. They are always 

amazing and Therese is so easy to listen to

 and watch on YouTube.

I decided that I would case one of her cards as I have had the

Altenew Peony Stamp set for an age but have resisted inking it

up until now that I have bought the dies to go with it. 

You can find her beautiful card Here.

You will see I have case-ed it closely changing just a few things.

This card was made for my BFF Carole and without her

I would maybe never have gone down the path I

am now glued to. Carole celebrates her birthday

a few days before mine and each year we spend

hours creating something special for each other.

Altenew Peony Bouquet Stamp/Die
