Paper Artsy Challenge

Needed to make a card to send with some ATC’s so chose to try and recreate this one from Joanne Wardle on the Paper Artsy Blog. Am going to enter their challenge this week!

Chose a die from the Marianne range which is a few years old now but one of my most used dies. Even after years of owning a Big shot, then a Big Kick i still don’t remember to emboss the edges of anything so you will see my shape doesn’t have an embossed edge, I like not having that embossed edge.

Paper Artsy Joanne Challenge

The sentiment is from Paper Artsy HP 1004 stamp plate. Used Fresco Paints Eggplant, Smoked Paprika and Pumpkin Soup in same quantities as Joanne showed. Had to add some Treasure Gold Limited Edition 1 and Royal Amethyst.

Loving the new set of stamps from the Artistic Stamper called Swirls, Splats and Dots used this to go over the aperture using the same combination of colours as above.

Hope you like the card, thanks for dropping by Smile
