Theme Thursday this week is use some warm colours Red, Orange & Yellow. I selected Fired Brick & Spiced Marmalade distress inks to make my background. I love how these two colours have bled into one another & made the gorgeous pinky red bits & the marmalade has gone quite yellow in the top corner. They fascinate me! Then I stamped script in an orange pretty colur ink cube. Happy is in terracotta. Image courtesy of Vintage Resources. Floral corner along with other two stamps, Crafty Individuals.
Another fantastic card sketch #32 from Tamara this week. I got making it quite merrily using some of the Crate paper Avenue Collection, which my team mate, Anne gave me on our retreat.
Then I realised after I embossed my swirls that the sentiment was not going to look right at the top so I have placed it at the bottom sort of upside down to the original sketch.
beautiful pieces! fabulous!
