Well we are back from Holiday and had a fabulous time, like most crafters I was itching to craft so spent yesterday evening crafting. Today I am sharing a card aI made last night. I was really inspired with the colours I saw in Mexico so went to of my comfort zone and made something in patterned paper and colour!
I started by cutting lots of different tags using the With Love tag die set from oddments of patterned paper and white card. I added these onto a card blank covered in a different patterned paper.
I then tied a strip of May Arts silky ribbon across the front and added a bow in the same ribbon.
Once dry I shaded the petals using a mix of yellow and orange Izink pigment ink, i shaded the flowers after making them so that I maintained the white centre and the edges of white popping through.
Enjoy...
