X is for Xtreme

Hello and thanks for visiting.

We have a fun new challenge over at ABC Challenges and we would love you to join us!

Our challenge is X for Xtreme

(so bright, bold colours)

We have two fabulous sponsors Marianne Designs plus Stamp & Create

I have used a Magnolia image called Tilda Loves Flowers and coloured the image in with Copic Markers.

The dies used are from the SU Ovals Collection, Marianne Design Petra Large Oval and Marianne Design LR0280 (Heart Design).

I cut the Marianne Design Heart die twice once in Melon Mambo cardstock and the other in Whisper White cardstock.  The Whisper White die I cut down to fit on the other date and stamped Wishes word in Melon Mambo ink from the SU Endless Wishes stamp set.

The paper used is Kaiserkraft Telegraph Collection – Believes.  The cardstock used is SU Melon Mambo, Sahara Sand and Xpress It Blending cardstock.

Here is my card:

 

The embossing on the Marianne Large Petra Oval die have been daubered with Sahara Sand ink.

The Lace was in my stash a present from my Mum and then a small bit of paper was placed on top and then the sparkle strip on top.

Here is a close up of the image:
