Celebrate!

Hey!

I'm super busy but unusually organised here in the studio and my mojo seems to have returned which is good timing as I am preparing projects to share using the upcoming August Release - yep, that's right your eyes didn't deceive you! It's not long now until I'll be sharing Sneak Peeks!

Anyway, I've this card to share with you using Beautiful Blooms I paired with Background Builders: Round In Circles...




It's not a colour scheme I'd usually turn to, but I quite like how striking it is. I used the current Dynamic Duos challenge colours seen HERE and below and added some glitter to those blooms again, making it appropriate for the current Addicted to CAS challenge HERE.






 It's hard to capture how sparkly this card is in a photo, it just doesn't do it justice! I decided to use a 'celebrate' sentiment seeing as the UK is celebrating the birth of the Duke & Duchess' Prince. Such a happy time and making me broody!




Ok, that's all from me today, there is much to be done as I am off for a little spinster (bachelorette) getaway to London for a few days :) I will have posts scheduled here on the blog while I am away to keep you all entertained & we also have a Super FREE Saturday on the blog this weekend!

Thanks for stopping by today :)

    Very striking! Wonder how you managed to get the background stamped so straight, any tips?

      Hi Jane!
      I have Stampin' Up's grid paper stack to stamp on. What I do is temporarily adhere my mat layer to the grid paper then stamp repeatedly from bottom to top using the grid which is in centimetres as my guide. Most cutting mats also have a grid on them which would also work. Hope this gives you a few ideas to try.
      Hugs
