Pretty Blooms
























Welcome it's a mid way for Stamping Sensations and Penny black & More @ Allsorts challenges, if you didn't get the chance to join in last month's challenges these could be the ones for you, there is still time to enter.

At Stamping Sensations  this month the theme is 'Show Your True Colours' , so use your favourite colours, I bought some tulips for my son's grave and they were pale yellow tipped with pink, I had never seen them before but loved them so much they are my inspiration for this theme.  I made a background with Distress Oxides and coloured my image with Distress Inks, colours used were Squeezed Lemonade, Picked Raspberry and Spun sugar.  I stamped some butterflies then inked them with versamark and then holographic embossing powder which give them a sparkle.



We have sponsorship this Month from

And of course, the Design Team have created some stunners to inspire you. Please do pay them a visit to their individual blogs - it means a lot to know you appreciate their efforts.




























And now onto my second challenge creation for Penny black & More @ Allsorts, where the theme is 'Blooms, Butterflies And Bugs' ,  My card has blooms and butterflies, the paper is really pretty with daisies on to go with the image.

We have prizes from Penny Black, Swedish House Crafts and Stix2  Now isn't that a lot of prizes, definitely worth getting your Penny Black stamps out isn't it!!!!!!

Two totally different but equally pretty cards Tracy, loving the inky background on the first and how you have carried the colours perfectly to the Tulips.

Two really super cards Tracy.
Super background and image on your first card and I love the idea of yellow and pink tulips, not seen any like that myself.

Such a cute image for your second card and to be honest I didn't realise that the flowers were on the papers, I thought that you had lined the papers with flowers, if you follow that?
