Stempel Spass

Classic and elegant is the theme at House of Cards this week. The sketch remains the same. I somewhat freely interpretated the sketch. I punched out a 2 inch circle. I sponged the background of the panel behind it.  I used the Memory Box Fresh Daisies die and then used the negative die cut to sponge the daisies onto the colored panel. The sentiment is from Stempelknopf. I like the yellow/grey combo - I hope you like it too.  Wanna see more Canada pictures? I thought I show you some wildlife today:     Pretty amazing, those animals. we had so much fun watching them.

 The summer heat and work made a significant dent into my card making.... My craft room is on the top floor and there is no air conditioning..... I could not get myself to go in there the last couple of days. Never mind, that I was swamped with work anyhow and my evenings were occupied with work.....but today I tackled a card that I knew exactly how I wanted it to be, so it would not take too long to make. I used watercolor paper and colored it as you can see, using distress ink and a brush. I sprinkled water droplets on it once it was dry. The flower is a die cut from Memory Box (Fresh Daisies die - Simon Says), the sentiment is Papertrey - Dress Form. Some twine and pearls and  voila' - I will be linking this card up with  House of Cards challenge - classic and elegant. And I am also linking this card with Top 1  - Stempelgaudi  - link up your favorite card from the previous month - there is a prize to win in addition to the fun loo...
