For our challenge this week we would like to see you use
SHADES of BLUE
You can use a white card base, but we do want to see more than one colour of blue, not just one!
I've come to the conclusion that blue is not my favourite colour but by sticking to it I produced three or four cards and some will be relegated to either the bin or salvaged in some way probably by cutting up!! Drawing around the stencil was a big challenge, LOL There is blue card and inked paper and DP all over the place........not a good day:{
The stencil is Tattered Angels and the ink is a Marvy blending block shades of Blue
Stamps by Rubbadubbadoo, the UK firm but now out of business:{ Sentiment by PTI and jewel peel offs by Stampendous.
About time I checked out the other entries at LIM, loads of inspiration there:0) TTFN

Don't relegate them to the bin! I really like the delicate style of the second one and the first one is very clever.
Love them Gay, my favourite is the first one xx Jan
2 great cards but i love the stencilled one! Thanks for the comments x
I always find it funny when you are not inspired by a certain color, how hard it is to be happy with the card in the end. I think both cards are just lovely! But I love blue. :)

They are both fab cards!
Love the shading on the first & the image looking towards the sentiment on the second :-)
Like the sharp edges of the stencil, well worth the effort.
Gay - these are both gorgeous cards. I just love the first one with that magnificent flourish - looks fab. The second card is simply lovely - her face is so serene, and it's a lovely sentiment! Great work!

Hi Gay, two lovely cards. I love the shades of blue you've used on both of them. That PTI sentiment is fabulous, and looks perfect the way you've stamped it under the figure.
Your cards are so creative, I do love them! For not liking blue, you've done a wonderful job!
Hello Gay, WOW! Both of your cards are just fabulous. I love the image on the 2nd card, but I also love the image on the first card. I think they are both fabulous. I hate to hear you cut up these two cards. Just beautiful!!

Well ... blue might not be your fave colour but it's done you proud here!!
