Hello crafty friends
I hope you are safe and well, despite the challenges worldwide..
Today I’m sharing signs of Spring, although Hellebores give joy through winter too.
I was a lucky prize winner at Allsorts in December
I needed a lot of birthday cards for January, and like many of you my mojo has dipped,
and using a new set like this is also a challenge for me.
I always try to use new things at least once before adding them to my stash,
so this was my attempt…
My friend likes blues and purples, so I used artistic license here,
decoupaged the flower and added a gold gem, and gold and clear wink of stella.
I also used a stencil to add some dotty detail.
I tried to emphasise the word “flower”, but mischief mojo messed it up,
so I added a hand cut version on top.
I’m sure my friend will appreciate it was hand made if nothing else 😂
I’m taking this to the following Challenges:
Snippets Challenge #498 (White snippets used for flower and leaves)
Allsorts Challenge #815 ( nature-flower)
MyNBUS #70 (new stamp)
I accidentally discovered there’s a limit on the number of blogs you “follow”,
that appear on your reading list,
so I went through my list and deleted some inactive ones.
I had realised that some blog posts were not appearing…..who knew?
Take care and see you soon
Lesley
