A {Labor} of Love

Welcome to a new challenge over in The Shabby Tearoom! Debbie is your lovely host this week and asks we create card or project using COLOURS FROM THE PHOTO & A BANNER.

I just love this weeks inspo pic and tried  to reflect as much of it as I could in my card! I stuck die cut stars onto the kraft card blank like a stencil and painted over the top and removed them. I've added a ribbon banner and paper rosette (by Tim Holtz) along with the 'Snowmen Melt My Heart' (yes, really!) digi stamp from Robyns Fetish which I've altered to say 'So'!

Vintage Vibe

We have a new challenge over at The Ribbon Reel blog, and Helen is our wonderful host this fortnight and asks we create a card / project in BLACK & WHITE with a shot of PINK plus RIBBON.

I must admit this colour scheme slightly worried me, as it's not normally what I use but I think I pulled it off! I love the papers which have been sat in my stash for ages, which I gave some wonky stitching. A doily has been layered with music paper and a Tim H birdcage die cut (which has been subtley stamped), scallop circle, chipboard circle and voile and felt heart with a flash of pink from this pretty rose.

Seam binding has been threaded through the base of the birdcage and shredded the ends and scrunched up for a bit of texture. I finished with a greeting stamped onto music paper.


White Seam Binding, Tea Rose, Bakers Twine and Heart pin all available from The Ribbon Reel.
