C.R.A.F.T Challenge 20

The challenge at C.R.A.F.T this week is to create something using this picture for inspiration, thanks to Suzi from the DT for coming up with this:

and this is my DT card:The background is cuttlebug embossed and the raised bits inked with magenta and green ink.


For the flower I cut out a flower shape then embossed it using part of the cuttlebug Floral Fantasy folder, and rubbed green ink over it. Finally I added garden twine with buttons threaded through it.

The prize this week is kindly donated by Claire, some mini brads, Basic Grey papers, a few sheets of hand coloured leather and some lovely handmade stickers:

I am also entering this card in another challenge - By the Cute & Girly - it's a new monthly challenge blog that's just started, and their first theme is "Autumn Glory".

    Hi Rose

    Sorry but I am a bit slow in commenting as I have been away for two weeks and only just returned.

    What fantastic creation - love what you have done here. Great embossed background and gorgeous little mice.

    Loving the heart and details on the flower too.

    Thank you for taking part in the very first "By the Cute & Girly" challenge. I hope you play along again next month.

    Love Jules xx
