On Wednesday, I was inspired by guest artist Laura Bassen who raided her scrap stash to create some stitched banners to meet the colour requirements. I found some scraps in my own stash that suited the colour combo and I made this the right hand border of my card.
On Thursday, Christina issued a 10-minute card challenge. I haven't tried that one yet - a little intimidating given how new I am to this. I've got some vacation coming up so hope to come back to this challenge when I have a little more time to plan.
I finished the week off on Friday with this card, where I tried to play a little bit with some embossing, inking on washi tape and some light inking on the embossing.
TIP: I fussy cut the sun image, but I'm not the best at fussy cutting so to give me a start, I used a hole punch to punch in between each of the rays then just finished off with cutting around the points. I think it turned out OK and saved me some time and frustration.
