Well with all the blooming rain we are having in the UK it’s about time
we had some sunshine so this challenge is probably the only way we will get
some unless you are going abroad for your holidays….
I have used an image called Pook
Girl 1 by Pookie
Designs for this challenge. I chose to make a monochromatic card in only
shades of yell and using white as a neutral. Yellow is one for my favourite
colours so I set to work using my beloved Promarkers & Flexmarkers in
various shades of sunshine J
I haven’t made an easel card for ages and thought this would be a lovely
way to use this image. All the patterned papers are from the Family Ties First Edition
pad by Dovecraft. The main paper is a glittery damask pattern and I used a
co-ordinating gingham pattern as I felt it would emulate the top of the dress.
The darker yellow has been recycled from a glossy brochure from a recruitment agency
that I have had in my stash for years.
The sentiment is a freebie from Gingers House and I used a nestabilities
die to to cut it and the larger mats. I inked around the edges of the larger
mat to define the shape better. I used my lovely flourish die from Cheery Lynn.
I love how you can manipulate the swirls as in the front of the card, but then
can snip it into shapes as for the inside. The flowers are Primas and I have
added lots of twinkly gem centres.
