Well I'm of to a good start this morning. Not even 9.30 and I've made a DT card for 15th August with an image I had coloured, sun is shining,washing is on, dusting is done and a few other odd jobs. More cleaning and ironing to be done before I can play some more though I'm afraid.
This week at Winter Wonderland the lovely Suzi has given us a WOW challenge, white on white apart from the image. Not being able to reach for my lovely papers is always a challenge but I am always pleased with the results as it makes you use embossing folders, die cuts etc and be imaginative with your layout. I used an old Sizzix stars and scrolls embossing folder on the background, most of which is covered up. I layered up a swiss dots embossed border punched with a Michaels border punch. Some Sizzix cut scrolled corners, white ribbon. MS punched sparkly snowflakes and pearls to finish. The pearl looks slightly pink in the photo but they are white, trust me. The gorgeous image is an Elisabeth Bell image from Whiff of Joy which I have coloured with Spectrum Noirs and yes, I have used the turquoise pens again.
