Bright and sunny yellow


Morning Peeps, time for our new Allsorts challenge and this week Lynn is our host and would like to see Yellow on our creations, very fitting as we head into Spring. We have a lovely stamp set from Woodware and a stencil for this weeks lucky winner. 

Further down you will also find my Chocolate Baroque shares from my post on the DT blog here.

My first card at the top is one of my recent samples for Pete Simpson's latest Hochanda TV shows which featured beautiful funky flowers and inspirational sentiments, I count myself very fortunate to design for Pete and get to work with his wonderful artwork. His stamps are available to purchase from his company Artisan Designs here.

The base of my card is a piece of 600gsm Fabriano brayered with three colours of acrylic paint, then one of the sentiments stamped vertically in the centre. Next the flower was stamped and then paper pieced. The same sentiment is stamped again and placed over the base of the flower and some twine wrapped round. I covered three chipboard discs with the same acrylic pain, stamped the centres of another of the flowers from the release and heat embossed with clear EP and fixed onto the piece and mounted onto a black base card.



The lovely yellow Rose is by Penny Black, stamped in black Versafine and embossed with detail clear EP and coloured in with glitter pens, then some stencilling added to the background with Distress Inks. Some punched corners added, yellow ribbon and mounted onto some coordinating DP and a black base card.

As mentioned earlier, my Chocolate Baroque shares, details of how I made them all can be found here.


Do pop over to the Allsorts challenge blog and see all the inspiration my teamies have to share and we are looking forward to seeing all your bright and sunny creations this week.

  2. Great cards Brenda, from the classic rose to the delicate shop window. I love the texture and Zentangle-like stamping on the butterfly card. Doubt I will be entering Allsorts this week though, Yellow is NOT my colour! xx

  3. More beauties here, Brenda - I particularly like the last card, with its striking contrast, especially with the pretty butterfly addition, but they are all beautiful. Love the design of the first - great way to use text - and the subtle stencilling of the second adds just enough interest - lovely.
    Hope you're feeling much better at the moment and enjoying the lovely Spring sunshine.

  16. A lot of fabulous cards, Brenda! You have been so busy! I have already admired your CB samples on their blog and love so much all them, especially those with butterfly theme, Wow!
    Also the first two cards are so lovely, the folk one is just striking with the paperpiecing and that fabulous sentiment! The penny Black one remember me a playing card, I don't know why :D and looks very feminine! I have never thought that yellow and black could be so feminine and elegant! Your talent always shine! :)
    Hope you are having a fabulous time with your loved son! Enjoy him!
