Morning all!
It’s a new elemental challenge over on the Daring Cardmakers blog.
Here’s the inspiration image we’re playing with:
For this week’s challenge, I’m taking a trip down memory lane on many fronts – from the papers used to the star of the show stamp and die combo – I wonder what you’ll recognise…
Papers: Basic Grey – Hillside (r)
Stamp and die bundle: MFT – Just My Type (r)
Dies: Cheery Lynn – French Pastry Doily (r), Lil’ Inker Designs – Stitched Mini Chevron (r), PTI – Scallop Border (small/medium/big) (r), Spellbinders – Fluted Classics Rectangles
The elements I chose to work with were plants, a semi-circle, and a cross-hatched/cane pattern.
Enter the Hillside collection from Basic Grey (think this was release in 2016 or so) and stamp and die combo that used to feature a lot on my cards back in the day – the original Just My Type set from MFT.
I often paired this with an MFT doily die or the Cheery Lynn French Pastry die used here.
The colour palette for this card is a bit outside my norm, but with some light inking around the edges with brown ink and some decorative edges it’s come together fine. 🙂
Make sure you check out the projects from the rest of the design team here, and play along if you can!
Until next time, happy crafting!
