Good morning to you all in the land of blog
Today sees the last challenge for 2012 at the
with the challenge this week hosted by Miria, the theme this week is
New Beginnings
We are sponsored by Simon Says Stamp and they are offering a $15 voucher to spend in their shop.
Here is my design team inspirational piece, however don't forget to hop on over and see what the rest of the amazing team have created to inspire you.
I made an 8 x 8 inch "Leaving to have your baby" card
Base colour is a lovely sunshine yellow with the papers from the fabulous Mono range by Papermania. The punch work courtesy of the MS daisy punch, the scrolls are Marianne's, the lace from Grimsby Crafts, the gorgeous ribbon from Lidl. Pearls from the Hobby House. Sentiment is computer generated to suit the card and the image
can only be the gorgeous
Bella Sleeping by Wild Rose Studio, not that she needs introducing.
Here is a close up of the image, Bella is coloured in the cool copics and Mum's trunk in the warms. Atyou Glitter pens in gold, orange and Yellow have been used on the flowers along with the melon green.
If you want to see more of the Wild Rose Studio collection or be inspired by others hop and see us on
