HOORAY RAINBOW

I recently took part in a challenge, the theme being an Inspirational Image inspired by a rainbow. I did mess up the sentiment but never mind I got the rainbow by using sponge daubers.

A LITTLE MORE CHRISTMAS

As you know I am part a group that issues a challenge every month based on Christmas cards, projects whatever, only condition is that at least one Stampin' Up! product is used. 

This month's challenge was Non Christmas Stamps, easier than I first thought it would be. Even though I used the word Joy on the card, this didn't come from a Christmas set.

The Designer Series paper I used is the Magnolia Lane which is in the current Annual catalogue. I coloured each magnolia using Real Red Blends, The paper is so beautiful I didn't want to cover too much up so used vellum to add the sentiment.

Another very quick and easy cards.

ALWAYS REMEMBERED


I really can't get enough of the Peaceful Poppies Suite, I do voluntary work for RSL NSW and as the poppy is the symbol for remembrance, I get to use this suite often.

Poppies are used to remember those who have given their lives in battle, it is because they are the flowers which grew on the battlefields after World War One ended. This is described in the famous World War One poem In Flanders Fields.

I made this card to send to a friend for Anzac Day, as always its a very simple card.



I layered a piece of the Peaceful Poppies DSP onto a piece of Old Olive cardstock, which I then layered onto a Basic Black card base. The frame is from the Painted Label Dies, I actually used two of the dies, the frame and then the edging. 

I usually leave a ¼ inch border between layers but as the DSP is so gorgeous I wanted to make it the focal point so my borders are ⅛ inch.
