Hello Friends and Happy Monday! I hope you are staying warm, we dipped down to freezing over the weekend here in Florida! Wowzers, it was cold and since Flip Flops are the State shoe of Florida..my toes are still frozen! LOL
Today is the mid-month inspiration post for Jan's Digi Stamps Challenge and the team has created some gorgeous projects using the newest sets released at the beginning of the month: Lovin' Lily of the Valley and Sweethearts. I've chosen to use a set that's included in the Sweetheart Sale, going on now through the 31st of January. I've used the Valentine Wishes Set to create a card for a Swap partner.
The floral wreath was colored using Prismacolor pencils, I've been gravitating to pencils instead of alcohol markers lately. I've fussy cut the image, mounted on foam pads and adhered to a 5.5" card base.
The sentiment is from the same set and it has also been popped on craft foam. Lastly I've added a gold thread bow and clear sequins. Please stop by the challenge blog and check out what my teamies have created. Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Donna, this is so pretty, with the modern shading techniques, and the lovely use of pastels contrasted with the black frame. If I do say so myself, we have pretty good taste to have unexpectedly chosen the same image! LOL
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous, great design and coloring!
ReplyDeleteSuch a breath of Springtime in that wreath and a lovely card. I can so relate to the gravitating, seems like I went that way with the watercolors week before last. I'm glad we didn't get down quite that low in temp, I think we had one early morning at 38F. Warming up now, then chilly again this weekend. XOX
