The challenge this week is from the lovely Kristen and she said.................
We
may be nearing towards the end of summer, and for most, the flowers are
fully bloomed, but for me, some of the best flowers are yet to come. I
love the gigantic sunflowers and the autumn mums, and for that reason, I
challenge you to use flowers in your creations this week. Have fun !
So as Guest designer for the month of August ( lucky me :D ) I made a card
with water and then stamped again with Picked Raspberry DI, A natural sponge damp is great for adding texture to the Distress ink. Daniel's Hearts also stamped with water hopefully makes the blue more interesting :D
Which do you prefer the pale or colourful background?
I hope you will be inspired to join in and make something with Flowers there is a chance to win the $30 monthly prize for Stampotique stamps YAY !!!
Busy here lately Grandchildren visiting, fun but exhausting :D Thanks for joining me here, Gay x

I love him with the bright colourful background. I think it actually highlights him and his flowers even more. So cute.
Fantastic flowers Gay, love how you have used Spider Wings for the petals. Both backgrounds are lovely but on this occasion i prefer your DI background, takes me to more ethereal plains...
Enjoy your Grandchildrens visits:-) xxx

It's a fabulous card Gay. I liked the first and love the background on the second xx
Definitely color gets my vote, Gay! Love the use of "Daniel's Hearts," as Baby Cthulhu is carrying flowers to his/her great love! Using rolled "Spider Wings" for your petals is just amazing...love how your mind works! Thank you for continuing to inspire us all as the Guest Designer!
Wow great and beautiful card dear Gay, I love the image and the colors you've used, the background is super!!!
