Morning everyone, a new challenge at Allsorts where Liz would like to see makes for Romantic Occassions, or of course the A/G option. Prizes come from Highlight Crafts, AALL and Create and Stampendous.
Annabel our second eldest Granddaughter became engaged recently, Sam her new Fiancee proposed whilst they were on holiday in Canada, he went all prepared with the ring and took her by surprise on a boat trip.
This is the card I made for them, a similar design to a couple of others I have made as I find the design pleasing on the eye and can be easily adapted to different colourways. The heart is from AALL and Create Forget Me Not (896) and stencil Rosey Posey (138), when I was first sent the heart stamp set I was doubtful I would use it much, how wrong I was! I used new Versafine Clair colours to lightly stencil the background and stamp the heart, stamped just the flower twice more to cut out to decoupage and a computer generated sentiment.
Rather belatedly my share for the Card Chain Challenge which featured the colour option of Navy, Turquoise, Gold and Summer, it went to Imke in Germany. I used a Lisa Horton layering stencil and die and placed over an aperture of a TL lattice insert.

Ciao Brenda, sono in ritardo con i commenti, ne ho molti ancora da smaltire. Mi dispiace per il freddo lì da te! Qui fa molto caldo, ma il tempo è instabile, si passa dal sole al vento forte, alle nuvole... e se piove per pochi minuti, piove sabbia!
Congratulazioni per il fidanzamento di tua nipote Annabel (che bel nome!) Mi piacciono molto i colori che hai scelto per la sua card di fidanzamento e i fiori a decoupage risaltano così bene sul delizioso cuore! I Versafine Clair sono inchiostri stupendi, così vibranti e succosi! Ne ho qualcuno e penso sempre che devo ampliare la mia collezione.
La card per Imke è sensazionale, adoro la palette e i bellissimi fiori a strati. Quel traliccio all'interno è una idea meravigliosa, che bell'effetto!
Un abbraccio!
its wonderful cards!
What a wonderful place for a proposal and the card you made for them is wonderful. Such lovely colours and the colour matched personalised sentiment is the perfect touch. Wow to the layered stencil card, it looks fabulous xx
