It happens to all of us – and I’ve been stuck for inspiration. In order to regain my mojo, I had to turn my attention to my private stamp collection (stamp sets not currently in the SU Europe Idea Book and Catalogue and non SU products). So this card is a combo of SU and non SU products. If you follow my blog, there will be times when I’ll stray off my well trod SU track – so bear with me. …”Variety is the spice of life”….. so I’m told.
The “flowers” for this was made with 6 punched DSP (Designer Series Paper) circles which were folded in half and glued together. The image was stamped in Certainly Celery on a scrap of Very Vanilla, distressed edges all round and inked in Rose Red to match card blank and DSP. I added a piece of Very Vanilla grosgrain ribbon on the left before matting on to Certainly Celery which had a scalloped edge on one side. These were then finally layered on to the Rose Red card blank and to finish, I added a butterfly and used some crystals for the body for some extra sparkle.
Beautiful card Elaine, I love what you have done here. Glad to hear your mojo is on its way home, certainly looks like it from more recent posts!
