Happy Wednesday and welcome to Ellibelle's Crafty Wednesday post! It's a new month already and that means it is time for a new challenge! There were many wonderful entries last month and I decided to add top picks in addition to the random winner, so be sure to scroll down to see if you were the winner or a top pick.
For the month of May I decided to set the theme of
"For Ladies or Girls Only".
So get out your girly stamps, pretty florals, maybe ribbon or lace and make something pretty! I can't wait to see what you all come up with, and this should be an easy one....
I made a Clean and Simple Card today, using the Stamp Fluffy Passenger along with the Stencil set Oscillations.
Fluffy Passenger // Oscillations Stencil Set // Rays Stencil // Tattered Rose Ink // Pumice Stone Ink // Stamp Platform
I stamped the image using Memento tuxedo ink (my go to ink when using copic markers) on Copic Xpress It Blending Card and then used copic markers for coloring.
The Rays Stencil is by Stampers Anonymous. I used Tattered Rose Distress Ink to add the sun ray design. One of the designs from the Penny Black Oscillations Stencil Set was used to create a "road" pattern. The sentiment is from Tim Holtz's Quotations Sticker set. (Yes, I admit I'm a little bit addicted to this sticker set and wish it came with even more sentiments!) Framed the image panel using some dotted designer paper by Prima Marketing. I don't think the pack I used is still available - I used the paper pack called "Something Blue". No blue papers though in this pack, I think it's meant to be wedding themed papers. The card base is a simple white Neenah Linen textured card stock 80lb weight.
The prize this month is a
$5.00 Gift Certificate to Mo Manning's Digital Pencil Store.
Please note, this prize is not sponsored by Mo Manning, the gift certificate will be purchased by me once I have the winner's email address (as the recipient's email address is required to purchase gift certificates.)
