Allsorts week 264 - How does your garden grow

Hi All
 
This week our theme is ******How Does your Garden Grow******, its being set by our Fab Brenda who loves all things botanical and does a huge amount to keep our challenge good and she deserves some crafty praise.
 
I've used a free stamp set to make my card, I really fell in love with the stamps and the lady screams 1920s elegance to me, I've done some paper piecing and used the lovely fresco papers and candy from craftwork cards (I really love their papers)
 
There are defiantly some lovely crafting ranges around at the moment
 

We have some lovely prizes this week








Two prizes this week, some nautical stamps and matching tags and ribbons and a set of Hero Arts flourish stamps.

Come along and join us
 
Thanks

Allsorts Week 262 - one layer card

Hi All

This week at allsorts the lovely Jo is hosting and she has set the theme of

**A ONE LAYERED CARD**
 
This does not include the card base/blank - you don't have to create your design straight onto the card blank. To give you some ideas check out the challenge post.

I had a play with a visible image background called ink splats and masked some butterflies, I have gone very vibrant with this one and have to say I quite like it!


Our lovely sponsor this week is Craftbag :-

Happy Saturday

I am GDT at Penny Black and more this month and the theme set is "Favourite Things", i have gone inky for my creation and used one of my favourite Penny Black poppy stamps which i have repeat stamped to form a poppy field.



Not my usual style of card, the background stamps are a mix hobby art and i have used a denami sentiment.
