BUGABOO STAMPS : A PHOTO INSPIRATION CHALLENGE


My card was inspired by this photograph that is our photo inspiration challenge at Bugaboo Stamps' Catch the Bug blog this week:
I chose not to go with a lamb, but to focus on the pretty flowers, and so featured the image Flower Water Can - Daffodil Can on my card.

ADD GLITTER - A NEW CHALLENGE AT 'A DAY FOR DAISIES'

A new challenge has just started at the A Day for Daisies blog, and we'd like you to add glitter.

The image featured on my card is called Hanging Out (and it's discounted to just $2.00 - that's 50% off!)

I merged the image with a digital leafy arch, and matched the colouring of the leaves.

On my card, I used the following:

white cs card base
gems
pearls
Stickles on the wings
sentiment in an oval, popped  up on foam blocks

PS : You need to use an ADFD image and there is a lil freebie on the blog for you to use (please don't share the image, just share the link)

Who would have thought to co-incide American Chocolate Week with the week you do your shopping for Easter eggs?  How convenient!

My card for Humor Me Wednesday at Bugaboo Stamps is to wish you all a Happy Bugaboo Easter!

I printed it onto kraft cardstock, coloured with alcohol markers and a white gel pen, added faux stitching and then fussy cut it.

I also used the following for my card
kraft cs base
cream cs background
blue cs mat
digital sentiment
roses
ribbon
sewn on sequins and beads
