Summer in a Jar

Hello crafters.  Hope all is well.

No sign of summer here I'm afraid.  We've had non stop rain for the past three days! Still, on the bright side, everything's getting a good soak and that means no watering!!



Items used:

Woodware stamp (Fresh Cuts) coloured with Promarkers.  I love Woodware stamps, particularly the florals which are nice and clear and easy to colour in and also their sentiment stamps.

A bouquet of wishes

Hello crafters.  Hope all is well.

For today's card, I got out one of my favourite paper pads.  I love the colours and glitter embossed finishes on the papers. I was surprised there was anything worth using in this pack as I have used it alot! Not to worry though, there is a new, unopened pad waiting in the wings :).



I coloured in this sweet Woodware stamp with Promarkers and embellished with some Aster flowers and leaves. I stamped, embossed with holographic EP, die cut with the matching dies and then layered them up.  I intensified the centres of the flowers with Promarkers before adding some glitter enamel dots. 



Items used:

Woodware stamp Bouquet of Best Wishes coloured with Promarkers
DP First Edition Boho Chic
Dies: Cr. Comp. Spring is in the Air Aster, SB Stately and plain circles, MB Pinpoint butterfly Trio
Glitter Enamel Dots


Challenges:
