Morning Peeps, it's Saturday which means a new challenge at Allsorts and our host is Mervi, it will be a two week theme to take us over the Easter period. Her theme is Anything Goes with a Monochromatic option. Our winner will receive a lovely stamp from Chocolate Baroque and there is an extra prize of a Tattered Lace die.
Lesley will be on Hochanda (The Craft Store from April 1st) on Good Friday 2nd April, times to be confirmed but there will be an AM and PM show as per usual.
I also have my shares from my post this week over at the Chocolate Baroque blog which you will find further down this post.
For the top card I have used a recently release stamp called Canary Bird Rose stamped in purple Versafine Clair onto a masked frame, inked and stencilled with the same inkpad, then the flowers coloured in using the same shade and perfect pearls added to the stamens. The sentiment from my own new Inspirational stamp set Life is so much Better released on Hochanda last month has been cut into sections and inked around the edges with the same Clair inkpad.
Details of stamps etc., used on the following three can all be found here.

Ciao Brenda, le tue cards chiamano davvero la primavera! Mi piace moltissimo la monocromatica, quello sfondo delicato è perfetto per la rosa selvatica così vibrante e il tuo sentiment è davvero versatile!! Bellissime anche le altre tre creazioni che ho ammirato in anteprima sul blog di CB, sono tutte splendide e solari!
ReplyDeleteQui il tempo è nuvoloso, a tratti fa freddo, poi caldo... Ma non piove. Il torrente è già quasi asciutto, la previsione è di un'estate siccitosa. Speriamo in un po' di pioggia, ma non troppa e possibilmente dopo Pasqua LOL :D
Un abbraccio
Gorgeous Brenda such vibrant colours, xx
