Tropical Flowers This  card is something different for me as I used some free dies from a magazine freebie and only stamped my sentiment. No colouring and everything is from my stash that I cut out but never used, including the embossed background. The flowers were cut in all different colours and I found enough to match the challenge colour. Still have so many left so more cards will be eventually be done. The embossed background looks like a flourish but also found one in my stash so I guess that covers the twist. I did sponge some green onto the leaves as they needed some definition and added glossy accents to the flower centres.

Using my re-inkers I have a card today from Day 2 technique and love the way it turned out. Used a background from lesson 2 and I made it into a Christmas card. Not my normal Christmas style but had fun with the red and purple colours and stamped an image from an old set that I was given when I first started card making and I have no idea who made it. The poinsettia is a favourite and I coloured it with my copics then fussy cut it out.The background die is from Die-Versions called flower garden and the sentiment from Ultimate crafts. Originally it was going to be white but it wasn't right so cut another one from black and layered it over the white one. Copics: R17,46,59,G82,85,99.

Sending Hugs Saw the sketch challenge on Stamp nation so thought  I would have a go.  I stuck to the sketch closely and it came together quickly. Cut a white circle from spellbinders dies,  hugs from a layered Avery Elle die and computer generated the sentiment. Stamped the flower and leaves from a set called beautiful day by Altenew  then adhered them all to green card then unto a dark grey card base. The sentiment , flower and leaves were attached with mounting tape for some dimension. Nice and simple card that would be great to send to a friend that just needs a hug.
