It is Boxing Day here in Australia - a day for Test Cricket, Sailing and huge sales at the shops!! I have enjoyed being back at my craft desk after enjoying a wonderful Christmas Day with my family yesterday.
This is for the F4A Challenge - A Case of Admiration. I admire so many wonderful stampers on this site so it is very hard to choose one. I hope to make a few cards for this challenge. This one is in honour of the incredibly talented Sallie (hobbydujour). I know we ALL love her work and I have to admit I was daunted about making a card from Sallie's gallery, however, I chose this particular one to CASE -
Sallie's watercolouring skills are amazing so I wasn't going there!! Instead I water stamped this flower and used a blender pen to colour the bg while still in the square die. I have a long way to go with my water stamping skills but was quite happy with the look of this. Instead of the lovely aqua blue Sallie chose I went with yellow textured c/s and a die cut sentiment.
TFL!
