Good morning all, it's Monday morning so that means a new challenge over at Sophisticats, we had a record number of entries last week for my Love theme, so thank you to everyone who entered, we were blown away by the number and quality of the entries we received.
We've got two new DT members joining us this week to, so a great big welcome to Diane & Tasha.
This week our lovely Avril has set the challenge and she's given us a Scottish theme of "Tartan" which we want to see on your cards, it can be just a small accent or a ribbon or you can go all out (a bit like I did) with a tartan overload!
We've been sponsored by Digital Ink who provided the DT with some fab images to play with and I've used this gorgeous fairy on my card, as I love fairies and I decided to paper-piece her skirt to make her look really Scottish (well I'm sure they have fairies in Scotland) and to match up with the backing papers. I've picked out the red stripes in the pattern, by embossing some Real Red cardstock with a dot embossing folder and glittered up her wings for a bit of dazzle.
I'm entering my card into the following challenges:
Sweet Sketch Wednesday - sketch
Quixotic - Fairies
Fab 'n Funky - Embossing
Here's the details for my card:
Stamp - Digital Ink digi coloured with ProMarkers & Stampin' Up! Markers
DSPs - digi papers (freebies)
Cardstock - SU! Real Red; Barely Banana; Whisper White
Flower & glitter from stash
Hope you can join us again this week
