THe inspirational Elizabeth

Hi Everyone, as my shoulder is still playing up, I thought I would share a card I made a while ago, inspired by my wonderful friend and fellow design team member Elizabeth, I was inspired by this card here.  If you would like to see some of her amazing work, hop on over to her blog here, you won't be disappointed.


This card uses Penny Black's Slapstick Cling Merriment 40-082 available here.  The image was stamped with memento ink and coloured with copics.  I used round metallic confettii for the baubles and embossed the bottom part of the card with a Cuttlebug snowflake folder. I then used a bone folder to flatten out a section of the embossed area so that I could stamp the sentiment from the Christmas with Mimi Clear set 30-079 available here. The ribbon has been knotted to add extra texture to the card.

Wishing everyone a bright and happy week, Hugs Cathy

Love the contrast of textures & colours against the white. The knotted ribbon is a beauty too. Hope your shoulder improves soon.
