Hi there!
So excited to be sharing this card today which is a guest design spot for The Challenge which I was asked to do after winning a previous challenge which you can check out here.
The inspiration for this week’s challenge was this sketch:
I had lots of ideas for this sketch and had a couple of failed attempts but then I pulled out my favourite Henna Elements stamp set from Altenew and it all came together.
I stamped the flowers in Memento Flannel Grey with some masking then masked off the rectangular element over them and used Distress Ink in Hickory Smoke to create a fading background. I then stamped the rest of the images in the Memento ink. The flowers were coloured using Spectrum Noir pens with some white gel pen additions.
I had such fun making this card, I hope you will check out The Challenge and join in too!
I would also like to enter this card into the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge, where this week, anything goes.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post, please leave a comment and let me know what you think! Cx
