I was recently lucky enough to win two gorgeous stamps from Elphine House as a prize from one of the blog challenges I had entered and they arrived yesterday morning. Lynne, who sent them to me, enclosed a lovely card telling me about their challenge blog and yesterday when I had a quick look I spotted that their current challenge theme is 'hearts and ribbons' and decided to make a card for it.
So here is my card using the beautiful 'Daisy Hugging Dolly' which I think is a beautiful stamp. I've used two different heart papers from Craft Creations and some sheer red ribbon.
I'd like to enter my card in the following challenges:
Dream Valley Challenges - 'ribbon and bling'
Lacy Sunshine Challenge Blog - 'favourite colour combo' (red and brown/kraft)
Shopping Our Stash - 'they say it's your birthday'
Card Making Mamas - 'birthday'
Card Crafter's Circle - 'paint the town red'
Simply Create Too - 'for a female'
I Love Promarkers - 'one for the girls'
Elphine House Blog - 'ribbons and hearts'
The Pretty Little Ribbon Shop Blog - 'anything goes'
Lovely clean layout Helen. Gorgeous image and I love the way you've reversed the paper colours like that...something I enjoy doing as I find it very effective.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card.
