A Collage-y Valentine.

Now that the recipient has received the Valentine I made for her I can show everyone. A fellow design team member designs the most awesome collage cards, I am in awe of her work so I decided to give it a whirl, I think just because I haven't made many.

The patterned paper seemed like the perfect item to start with and the doily just because Lauren uses them on her collage cards. the flamingos just because she loves them and of course Eyelet Outlet paper flowers and heart brad. Hello is an unbranded die cut.

Finished the inside with a generic sentiment (I use for many occasions) and some leftover patterned paper.

Thanks for stopping by today and enjoy the weekend.

The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge #92 ~~~ J is for Jumble

Wow another two weeks has flown by and it's September already, beautiful days and cool nights. Well I`m not sure who`s brilliant idea for the challenge was but it sure had me in  a panic,  J is for Jumble or make a collage. To some the idea of collage is easy peasy but for me it was that "Deer in the headlights" look. I did have some help with it by following some very good pointers from a fabulous collage maker, Lauren.  So without further chit chat here it is.

One of my first Stampin'up stamps was the stippled rose and still one of my favourites.   The card talks for itself, Three scraps of paper one doily, some stick on lace and a fussy cut image which has a touch of wink of stella on it as well as some tiny blue gems dotted around.  The Hello was cut twice once in black and once in white shimmer paper and popped up as was the rose.

I don't seem to be able to see the sparkle but it's there

Since I decided this could be used for any occasion I left the inside blank.

Thanks for stopping by and check out the main blog and see what the rest of the design team have "jumbled" up.
