Good morning my lovelies, yippeeeee its a Bank Holiday here in the UK so I've got an extra day off work to play! This card was made using the beautiful Madeleine stencil from Clarity and a shaving foam background. I haven't used that technique for ages but saw Barbara Gray using it and was inspired to have a play, you can't beat a bit of messy fun lol
I embossed the stencil through my Grand Calibur and then set to colouring with my Graph'It markers before cutting her out.
The background is from a batch of shaving foam backgrounds I made a few weeks ago and done a wee bit more inking and then added a little bow and some paper flowers.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
ArtbyMiran: anything goes
Clarity Stamp Challenge: feminine
Clear it out: anything goes
Crafters Cafe: square cards
Creative Corner: girly
Little Miss Muffet: anything goes
thanks so much for popping by, hope to see you again soon
