Bonfire Brights

Me again. This time with my latest creation for the Sarah Hurley Challenge. You still have a few days left to enter the current challenge which is…

Bonfire Brights

I have made a card using some of Sarah’s bright digial papers and also used a theme of little stars as they remind me of fireworks…

I have used star paper from the Back to School kit and wood grain paper from the Say Cheese kit. The sentiment is part of Sarah's Hand drawn Roses stamp set.

 

And just a touch of faux stitching/doodling with a couple of fine line pens.

Supplies:

• DP: Back to School and Say Cheese digi kits from Sarah Hurley
• Card: White, Yellow and Blue card from my stash
• Stamps: Hand drawn Roses stamp set from Sarah Hurley
• Ink: Brilliance ‘Graphite Black’ inkpad
• Dies & Punches: Sizzix Star Framelits

Long time no see! We have been fighting one set of germs after another in our house for well over a month now :-( and although I have managed to do a little crafting (grabbing a few minutes here and there) old Mr Mojo seems to have taken a hike and I haven’t really felt that the resulting creations were worth the effort :-(
Now we are returning to normal routine (I hope) so I’m going to do a few quick posts to try and catch up on the things I have missed.
