I used a couple of challenges in creating this card. The layout is based on the sketch from this week's Just Us Girls Challenge - JUGS#308, although I did turn it to make it horizontal. And BLUE is the cue word over at Addicted to CAS - ATCAS#71.
I started by masking off the sides of the card and stamped the background builder stamp repeatedly. I used Kaleidacolour blues to give some variation in the colours. I die cut a satin blue mat layer and on the white panel stamped a simple flower, embossed it with silver and coloured it with watercolour pencils. I finished the front with a simple sentiment. On the inside I cut a mat layer of blue design paper and added some more blue flowers to the white panel, leaving lots of space for my own message.
Do check out the blog to see what the rest of the team have made. Bye for now!

Hi Deborah. The repeat stamping in the background with the different shades of blue is so pretty and really sets off your main panel. Love the soft watercolouring with the silver embossing. Thanks for playing along at ATCAS. xx
All that blue and white makes me a very happy lady!! I love your card, especially the panel of tiny squares running thru the middle. Very cool and geometric. So very fabulous to have you with us for this challenge!
