Today, I'm excited to be sharing a Guest Designer card for the Allsorts Challenge, where the theme this fortnight is:
'Spring'
(Or 'Anything Goes')
The prize is some Penny Black stamps from Buddly Crafts.
I picked a cute Penny Black cat stamp to use called 'The Bestest!', and stamped it onto watercolour paper, then coloured it using watercolour pencils. For the background, I used snippets of papers from the 'Bright Freshness' pad by Craft Sensations. Only the two edge snippets are long strips, the others are teeny tiny, but the image covers the gap in the middle. I distressed all of the edges, then added faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen before mounting them, and the image, onto some yellow card.
Congrats on being the GD at Allsorts Helen. I adore this PB card and admire your crafty and thrifty use of snippets for the background. xxx
