Hi everyone, my card for Colour Create where the first challenge is pink, green and brown with an option of butterflies. I hope you can join in and it's great that this challenge can be combined with any other challenges you want to enter. There's some fantastic inspiration from the talented DT and a lovely prize too.
I'm also entering my card for the Cuttlebug Challenge and a theme of distressing. For my image I've used a gorgeous Elzybells bear which I've coloured with distress inks and cut out with a nestabilities oval. The card layers are all Coredinations and also cut out with nestabilities, embossed with a flowers cuttlebug folder and sanded. The Elzybells bear and sentiment are stamped in Versafine Timber Brown and mounted over the brown card on dimension tape. To decorate I added the green ginham ribbon, Prima flowers with Doodlebug candy dot centres, some punched leaves and butterflies with a bit of stickles for sparkle. TFL.
Materials:
Image and Sentiment: Elzybells
Colouring and Stamping: Versafine Timber Brown, Ranger Distress Inks in scattered straw, tea dye, walnut stain, shabby shutters, black, worn lipstick, fired brick.
Card: Coredinations card in chocolate, lime and bright pink
Embellishment: Green ginham ribbon, Prima flowers, Doodlebug Candydots, Nestabilities scalloped and plain ovals and Labels one, Cuttlebug flowers embossing folder, Woodware leaf and butterfly punches, sandpaper, Stardust stickles, edge distresser, dimension tape
