I can't believe how quickly May passed us by! It's the end of the month already so that means it's time for Marcia's and my monthly challenge. I really look forward to each month and our challenges. Marcia helps me think outside of my box and challenges me in so many fun ways, not to mention that I love our growing friendship.
This month we decided since we both had gotten the Beautiful Day set from Altenew, that that's what we would use for this month's challenge.
And, since all my cards are made using the same set, I won't go into detail about what was used on each card so this will be an easy post.
Here we go!
This first card uses a sketch from Freshly Made Sketches, but I flipped the focal point to the left. I heat embossed the outline of the image in gold and added a strip of printed paper and a thin strip of gold...
Made a frame using one of the die cut images...
It's hard to see, but there's Wink Of Stella on the black strip and I stamped and masked the flowers and fussy cut them...
A quilted embossed background with a scalloped rectangle frame and a sentiment from Simon Says Stamp...
I wanted to try a monochromatic card using fine linen, kraft and dark chocolate....
And one more card using a pretty frame from Sue Wilson ~ Australian Background Collection.
I will also be entering one of these cards into the following challenges:
Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to stop by Marcia's blog to see her beautiful creations. She always blows me out of the water. ;0)
Blessings~ Birgit
