Welcome back for this week's CASEing The Catty Sunday Challenge Blog Hop. We are up to Week 2 of our current challenge, which is to make a card that is inspired by the flowers of the Ornate Garden Suite.
Last week I did a heap fo fussy cutting with the Peaceful Poppies DSP. This week I decided to go more literal and use one of the stamp sets from the suite, Ornate Style.
I started by stamping the frame from Swirly Frames on a piece of Whisper White cardstock. I also stamped it on a piece of copy paper and trimmed away the piece on the inside of the frame. I then used the copy paper as a mask and stamped the flowers through it.
I then coloured the image with my Stampin' Blends. I used Rococo Rose, Daffodil Delight, Purple Posy and Granny Apple Green. I coloured the outer areas with Light Pool Party. A sentiment from Label Me Bold finished off the front of the card.
For the inside, I stamped the same flowers as the front, I just turned the stamp on it's side. They are coloured the same was as the front of the card. The sentiment is from Peaceful Moments.
That's all from me this week. We are at the halfway point for our challenge, so you still have a week to make a card and post it to the Facebook Group. What inspires you from the flowers of the suite?
Before you dash off to get creating, don't forget to finish the Blog Hop! Next up is the lovely Bec!
Bye for now,
