Hello and welcome back to my blog.
Its the February Elemental Inspiration Challenge over at the Daring Cardmakers blog and this months mood board is set by DT member Joanne . All you have to do is choose any three elements for your cards from this weeks picture. Remember colours count as one element. Ideas might include violets, ferns, amethyst, twine, ribbon, pins, pen nibs, lace, books, book text, Edwardian lady or gent, garden tools, hats, shells, script sentiment. There's lots to choose from and I hope you will enjoy joining in.
I chose book text, lace, a pen nib, twine, flowers and a sentiment. I decided to use kraft card for my base as it seemed to tie in well with the colours in the picture. I tore a strip of book text paper and glued that to my card. I added a length of lace on top so you could still see the book text showing through. Then I wrapped some twine around my card making sure it was going over the lace. I had a tag in my stash with the word hello and thought it was perfect to add to this project. I adhered some purple flowers to the the tag and a sequin in the middle of each one. I then added a pen nib to the tag and adhered it just under the twine. To finish it off I glued a few sequins in the background. I then mounted the kraft onto a cream coloured piece of card and then adhered that to the main kraft card base.
I hope you enjoyed my take on this weeks challenge. Show us some of your creations and don't forget to share on the Daring Cardmakers blog or our Facebook page Daring Cardmakers Create and Share.
