I know my third post of the week, and yes it's certainly been a busy crafting week, and I have two more posts to come on Friday, both being blog hops. I am so worn out I definitely need an early night.
Now Teresa has tasked us to create something with "Yellow". Gosh if you had read my Simply Sassy post a couple of weeks back you'll know that Yellow isn't me, but onward and upward as they say but.....I have to say I really like what I have created this time, perhaps yellow is growing on me.
I have used the crafts and me stamp, "Pansy Sisters" by Sara Burrier and I thought this would make a lovely Mother's Day card. This is the first side step card I have done, believe it or not. Don't know why it took me this long to get round to doing one, it was dead simple too. The only thing though is it's hard to photograph and do the card justice.
I have added some stamen to the middle of the pansys which really gives it dimension, just a little idea I had.
Here's a better view. I used my copic airbrush to make the yellow flowers as I didn't possess any, lol.
Materials Used:-
Image by Crafts and Me, "Pansy Sisters" available HERE
Medium - Copics
Martha Stewart Border Punch & Leaf Punch
Magnolia Swirl Die
Magnolia Tag Die
Ribbon and Pearls from Stash
Stardust Stickles
