After quite a long Christmas and New Year break I was raring to go and eager to get back into my crafting when I was struck down with Vertigo! Typical! I've tried to get round to see as many people as possible over the last week but apologise to those who I have missed.
I have, however, managed to get my first Daring Cardmakers card made for our first Challenge of the year. We've decided to have a monthly Dare once again and this year we're taking our inspiration from the Flower(s) of the Month.
The Flowers for January are the Snowdrop and Carnation
I've chosen to use the Snowdrop as I adore this pretty little flower:-
Coloured with Watercolour Pencils and shaded with Chalks
Bazzill Card Stock
Swiss Dots Embossing Folder
Martha Steward Edge Punch
Stampin' Up Corner Punch
Pearls - Hobby House
Ribbon from Stash

Hi Lynda, Happy New year to you!
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunning card! I love that shade of green and with the white looks so elegant. I hope you are feeling better too xxx
Oh Lynda. I'm so sorry to hear you're under the weather, what a way to start off the New Year.
ReplyDeleteI recognise this lovely stamp, you've done another beautiful job with it. I had every intention of adding it to my collection, but no chance of that now after the sad demise of Elusive images. I still have a few left that you sent me luckily, they will be used sparingly and for very special people only, LOL.
Take care my friend and stay warm. Did you get the snow today?
Hugs Lisax
What a beautiful card. I love snowdrops and carnations must be because my birthday is in January, strange that I never thought about it before. I once made a crossword for a Charity event and one of the clues was 'opening flower for the year' people found that really hard but everyone got the clue of crap Swedish furniture store!!!!!

Beautiful card Lynda, I love the subtle green you've used and the stamp is gorgeous. My sympathies are with you, I have been a long time sufferer of Vertigo and know it can be very debilitating. I hope you're back to 100% soon. Sue C x
