Evening Everyone. It's my Aunt's birthday today, so - Happy Birthday Joyce! The card I've got to share with you is the one that I made for her from my son - I think you'll understand why it's appropriate! I love this image and it was great to colour. When I first started out making this card, my intention was for it to be really clean and simple with the main focus on the image but then I seemed to just keep adding to it. And, I must be honest, I was a bit heavy handed with the distress inks around the edge of the card and because of that, it made the white space look a bit 'odd' so I had to add in some flowers to cover up some of it. In the end, I was pretty pleased with the way it turned out. I'd love to know what you think - as always!
Ingredients: Stamp - Penny Black watercoloured with distress inks, Scalloped Edge Card Blank - Craftwork Cards, Paper Flowers - bought from QVC ages ago, Brads - Papermania.
