Sorry I am a day later than usual this week. I do hope in these difficult times that you are keeping safe and well. It is at times like this we see how much people care for one another and how community spirit comes to the fore. I am praying for you and if anyone needs to chat via social media please contact me via my messenger or email. I would love to chat even though I can't be with you physically.
This is a time where we may be able to spend more time being creative, instead of wishing we had more time! So let's take the opportunity, enjoy and stay positive.
This week I decided to join in with a challenge from the Paper players. I have seen others who have joined in this and thought it would be a fun thing to do.
The remit for the challenge is clean and simple, minimal layers, white space, uncluttered and spring flowers.
I love the crocuses that are in the Easter Promise stamp set so I used them for my floral element. They were stamped onto whisper white card stock, coloured using highland heather, daffodil delight and granny apple green blends. The flower picture was then die cut using the stitched so sweetly dies from the mini catalogue. The daffodil yellow cardstock was also die cut using the same die set. I did heat emboss the sentiment with gold. It was w very quick card to make and assemble. I did add a few gold metallic Pearl's to complete the project. For me it was s challenge to keep it more simple but this is the result.
Until next week
Hugs and blessings
