Sweet pea stampers sketch

Hi, wow the weather is awful here, we've had loads more snow so I've been stuck in the house doing lots of crafting!! This is a card I made last week but didn't get chance to post it. I've used a gorgeous sweet pea stamp by Ching Chou Kuik and followed the sketch at Sweet Pea Stampers


I made the background using Midnight blue and meadow lush cosmic shimmer sprays - sprayed loads on to plain white card and then laid cling film on while it dried to give a beautiful cracked ice effect. The image is stamped on pearlescent card and coloured with promarkers. i've layered everything up on blue mirri card and added some ribbon from my stash. The paper flowers are from Jazzlins designs.

I'm also entering this card in the following challenges:
Delightful challenges: Flower Power
Top Tip Tuesday: Layer on Layer
Passion for Promarkers: Old and new (the stamp is fairly old, the cosmic shimmer sprays are new and the ribbon and mirri card have been in my stash for years)

Thanks for calling by today, I hope you are keeping warm and cosy. Before i go, here's a pic i took from the back door about 10 minutes ago


Blizzard or what?? If it carries on like this I don't think I'll be able to get to work tomorrow :-(

  15. Gorgeous work, Claire! Great coloring, and your background is fabulous!!!!! Great color choices!

    We're still waiting on our 1st snow here (supposed to come this week). We officially set a record for being the latest 1st snow last week. We really need the moisture, so you can send as much of this storm to us here in Colorado that you want to give! LOL
