My card today
features an awesome image from The Stamping Chef called The Artist.
Now Tamara, the
Stamping Chef herself, is running a competition to be the ‘colouring face’ of
the Stamping Chef, details can be found over in the shop where you buy the image. I couldn’t resist entering as it would be
such an honour to have my colouring featured on her shop. Also the image was clearly going to be a
challenge with all that curly hair so I really wanted an excuse to colour it
up.
Of course, once
it was coloured I had to put The Artist on a card. I followed the current sketch at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 to make up my card and selected papers that made me think of
painting and paints. I don’t know how
long I’ve had the Echo Park or Little Yellow Bicyle pads I used, they’ve been
in my stash for a good while so I’m entering my card in Crafty Creations’
current challenge to use something old from your stash.
As always my card
is a 6x6 square, so I am also entering it in the current challenge at The Crafter’s Café. I made the circle
elements I mounted the iamnge on using my trusty Nesties, layering a plain
circle on a blossom pattern. I also made
my own embellies with some pretty butterflies from a Marianne Design Creatables
die. With my die cuts I am entering this
in the current PDE Linky Party challenge.
To finish off my butterflies I added in some adhesive pearls and mounted
them on some lace tape, another thing I’ve had in my stash for ever, and pearl
trim so I am also linking my card up at Divas by Design.
Seeing I have used a Stamping Chef image on my card I am also entering it in their current challenge, where it’s always anything goes.
