Allsorts Challenge #682


Good morning everyone, it's Saturday so it's time for another weekly Allsorts Challenge. This week Lynn has chosen the theme and it is

*** So Girly ***

So we would love to see all your pretty, glamourous and feminine creations!

This week's fab prize is 2 AALL & Create stamps


Here's my card for this week.


This is part of another stamp I recently bought from the FB crafting de-stash site and I am very pleased with it ... I just love the bohemian "arty" look of the lady, and the sentiment is fab!  I believe it was given out with a craft magazine, but the lady image is actually Indigo Blu "Juliette".

I created a sponged background with Distress Oxide inks, then used more DO's with a circle mask to create my sun. I stamped my main image with Versafine Clair and heat embossed, then matted onto black and yellow card. I hand cut a DL card base and stamped/heat embossed the sentiment, then matted my image panel onto it and finished off with a few tiny punched butterflies, gems, and a Tim Holtz "Small Talk" sticker.

Stamps: Indigo Blu (given out with Craft magazine);
Media: Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks (Squeezed Lemonade, Fossilized Amber, Spiced Marmalade, Ripe Persimmon, Barn Door); Versafine Clair (Nocturne); clear embossing powder;
Tools: X-Cut butterfly corner punch (I used the tiny butterfly outcuts); TIm Holtz "Small Talk" stickers;
Gems from my stash.

Challenges I would like to enter:

As You Like It - Fave Feminine or Masculine (and why)
(My fave is definitely feminine as I have so many more suitable stamps eg. Girls, flowers, fairies … and I love girly colours !!)
Crafting Happiness #124 - Anything Goes
Creative Knockouts #458 - Something To Say
Dream Valley #272 - Add a Sentiment
Simon Says (Monday) - Something Beginning With "S" (3rd entry)

Lovely card using the IB stamp Pauline, one that's not seen the light of day for a long time this end. Like the way you have made it into a landscape DL shape.
