Happy Monday and thanks for taking the time to visit the charmed life blog. I am excited to announce that I was asked to be the guest designer on the Craft Your Passion blog.
I have played along in many of their challenges. Lisa, the guest designer coordinator, sent me an email and asked if I was interested in joining them for the month of June.
They sent me some digi images to work with and this is the first card I created. The image is from CocoDingo. I decided to make it into a sympathy card. I stamped the image and colored with prismacolor pencils and gamsol. I punched a frame from spellbinder labels 18.
The background patterned paper is from Stampin-Up's "parisian breeze" collection. My ribbon treatment is baja breeze seam binding also from Stampin-Up and I added a ribbon flower to the center.
My sympathy is a stamped image from hero arts. That completes this card and my post for today. I am still working on wedding invites and it's down to crunch time now. I have to have them finished in the next couple of days. So until next time...............
A few other challenges:
1. Card cupids blog wants us to use more than 3 layers. I have done that.
2. Catch the bug challenge has an anything goes this week.
Such a pretty card Mary. That image is awesome and the colors are perfect. Such a peaceful card. :o)
