Hello, today I’m sharing a couple of cards using some old stash from SU,
Abigail Rose, Cottage Rose, and Spotlight on Nature dies.
The papers did all the work (mostly!)
Card One
The papers are neutral, and I coloured them with Blends,
matching the card base with one of the colours.
Card Two
They were very therapeutic to make, although colouring in is not everyone’s favourite.
I always try to add some embellishments, hard to see on the busy papers

WOW - I love those papers and think they have made very striking cards. The circular sentiment on each of them is the perfect embellishment.
ReplyDeleteYAY - I received an email notification of your post - but, ironically, it also appeared on my Reading List this morning! Two notifications are better than one though! xxx
With my GD hat on, I’d like to say thanks for joining in at Allsorts too!
ReplyDeleteHi Lesley
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous cards - I quite enjoy a good colouring session, I find it very relaxing and it shuts my busy brain off! (If I am lucky).
Love the colours you have worked with and the way you have displayed your sentiments.
Enjoy your weekend.
Love and hugs

YAY - your post made it to the top of my list, as did a few others! Very pretty papers, beautifully coloured. It's to relaxing and satisfying to sit and colour images which can then be turned into pretty cards

ReplyDeleteTwo real beautiful Lesley and beautifully coloured, I'm one of those who doesn't embrace that element of crafting, so always admire the work of those who do and can. Many thanks for sharing at Allsorts and We Love Stamping challenges.
