Morning everyone, time for a new challenge at Allsorts where Lynn has chosen the theme of 'Use Yellow'. Prizes come from Craftstash and AALL and Create.
Yellow is a colour I love incorporating into my work, perfect for Spring but equally throughout the year combined with different colours, black and purple in particular.
Above one of the newish dies from AALL and Create, Oxides brayered onto the background, some random text stamped, Butterflies and words from Through the Meadow (449) stamped onto offcuts and cut out. So as there's lots of snippets, Butterflies, words and even the tag itself I'm off over to the Snippets Playground with it.
And I even remembered to take a photo of my snippets......maybe I'll avoid detention this time round.
This is another recent Highlight Crafts sample for Create and Craft using Flower of the Month Daffodil and one of the new stencils from Highlight.
Just For One Day was awesome and we all decided even better that We Will Rock You which we saw in July. And some very exciting news, we have received invitations to attend eldest Son's investiture at Buckingham Palace on 1st May....feel a new outfit coming on!
A brilliant take on the yellow theme - gorgeous tag. Yellow is such a cheerful colour and as you say teams well with so many others as well.

Really beautiful tag and absolutely gorgeous card. Love all the imagery and dimension on the flowers.
ReplyDeleteThe beautiful yellow color on your tag is lovely and I love the butterfly accent. The 2nd project is amazing and beautifully done, and you definitely need to treat yourself to a new outfit - just do it!
ReplyDeleteYou've certainly hit the yellow theme with your lovely tag brenda and those doffs are beautiful. Gosh! You definitely need a new outfit for the Palace! How exciting! x
ReplyDeleteOh definitely a new outfit for such an occasion Brenda, the proud Mum needs to look her best, so pleased you have such a lovely event to look forward to after the awful time you have had recently.
ReplyDeleteYour card and tag are beautiful in those cheerful shades of yellow.

Ciao Brenda, che eccitante notizia riguardo l'investitura di tuo figlio!!! Sicuramente sarai super-fiera di lui!! Sono contenta per tutti voi!! E anche un altro concerto all'orizzonte, tutto serve a tirarti su il morale e guardare avanti!
ReplyDeleteDue splendide cards nei toni del giallo! Non è un colore che uso moltissimo, ma di certo è luminoso e solare. La tag con le farfalle e quel piccolissimo topolino è molto particolare con il fil arrotolato e il bel bordo irregolare. Ma la card a concertina è davvero stupenda con tutti i narcisi TRR in 3D, lo sfondo a stencil e il nastro con i fiocchi! In Italia diciamo "con i fiocchi" per dire più che perfetta e questo è davvero il caso della tua card!! :D
Qui è prevista pioggia molto forte stanotte e domani. Aspetto con impazienza che arrivino le belle giornate! Quest'anno non possiamo certo lamentarci per mancanza di acqua!
Buon weekend!
Two really beautiful creations Brenda, love them both especially the tag with that gorgeous butterfly and cute little mouse, but of course Daffodils are some of my favorites flowers and you showcased them so beautifully on your second piece.
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear you enjoyed the concert and that surely is exciting news to attend your son's investiture at Buckingham Palace. How amazing and yes, definitely a reason for a new outfit!!
Two beauties. I love the butterfly tag but oh my goodness those daffodils are brilliant. Yellow is not a colour I use much but having seen these two I must get my act together. Hugs Mrs A.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tag and butterflies,love the fabulous tag shaped card and daffodils.Ooohh how exciting Buckingham Palace definitelt worth a new outfit.

Love your bright citrus butterfly tag, great mix of colours. You know I'm a glutton for daffodils! I love the tag card and those fabulous daffodils. So pretty with the ribbon. OH! How wonderful a visit to the Palace. You must be thrilled to bits, and a new posh dress too. Brilliant :) x
ReplyDeleteGorgeous yellow makes Brenda, it's a colour I rarely choose but makes me happy when I do!! You must be very proud indeed and a visit to Buckingham Palace should most definitely be marked by way of a new outfit!! xx
ReplyDeleteTwo such gorgeous creations Brenda, your work is always awesome even when you are not feeling your best health wise.

A beautiful bright and sunshine post which is just what I was hoping for over at Allsorts and I haven't been disappointed.
ReplyDeleteThe tag is so lovely with the black highlights and that cute mouse. Your screen card is just stunning - I must try and make more fold out cards, yours are always so inspiring.
Gorgeous makes Brenda, I particularly love the daffodil card - I had a church full of daffs when I got married!

Two wonderful makes, Brenda. I love the striking effect of the yellow with the black on your tag. Your spring card is just beautiful.
