We're Clean and Simple at A Little Bit Crafty


Good morning to you all my wonderful crafty friends.
Thank you for your kind comments on my cards yesterday. 
I can hardly believe that it is the first of September already and my children go back to school and college next week. I am really going to miss them, we have had a wonderful Summer together.

Anyway, today is the start of a new A Little Bit Crafty Challenge
This month our theme is
Clean and Simple

For this challenge we are sponsored by:
Prize 7 digis of winners choice

Prize 4 digis of winners choice

£10 Voucher to spend online


The design team were very lucky to be able to pick an image from one of the sponsors so I chose the gorgeous Floral Watering Can from Delicious Doodles

To try and add a bit of interest, I used my Spellbinders Edgeabilities Classic Scallop to shape the bottom edge of my card and embossed some lines using my Hougie Board.



Items Used:

Digi Stamp - Floral Watering Can from Delicious Doodles coloured with Promarkers
Sentiment - Clearly Besotted Butterfly Wishes
Spellbinders Edgeabilities Classic Scallop

If you take a look at the Little Bit Crafty Challenge you will see the wonderful creations made by the rest of the design team

I would like to enter my card into the following fabulous challenges:
Just Add Ink - Just Add Colouring
Delicious Doodles - Anything Floral

Thank you for taking the time to look at my blog again today. I know that I always say it but I honestly do appreciate your support and encouragement.
I hope you enjoy the rest of the weekend
bye for now
hugs

Karen said...

Sue, this is spectacular... I could stare at that image for hours. You've colored it to perfection, giving it so much life. You color flowers like none other. :o) I love the pretty trim along the bottom and the delicate framing. Beautifully done as always, my talented friend! And I must say it is always refreshing hearing you talk about your kiddos. Far too many parents are always relieved and thrilled when their kids go back to school... the opposite of how it should be. You are such an amazing mother and a blessing to your family! :o)

Hugs and blessings!

HI Sue, Great card. I love the scalloped edge on the bottom. I think that was the perfect choice for such a pretty image. Just gorgeous! I feel the same way about my kids being in school. I love it when they are home. They are really good teenagers and I always have fun with them. They are great about friends being over at our house, so we know who and what they are doing. Take care, Hugs, Lisa G
