Calla Lily Congrats


I'm constantly amazed by this creativity thing. I can spend a whole day trying to create something specific and keep binning card after card as they just don't work. And then I get an idea which I don't think will even work, and then 10 or 15 minutes later I've created a card that I really like. Like the right two brain cells finally managed to meet up. Go figure!

Anyhow, today's card was inspired by the CAS on Friday challenge where the theme is Flowers, the inspiration image over at Time Out and the colours over at Color Throwdown



Card: Watercolour paper from my stash, scraps of kraft and black card
Stamps: STAMPlorations In Bloom: Classic Calla Lilies
Ink and colouring: Tsukineko Versafine Onyx Black, Gansai Tambi watercolours
Die: CUTplorations Congrats Word die

What a beautiful bouquet of lovely blooms, Karola ... the soft colouring is wonderful ... and it's so deliciously CAS! It's always a joy when something turns out to be easy to create ... especially when it's as gorgeous as this is! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Time Out! Anita :)

Wonderful it worked out the first time, we know rare that is! And I love the loose colouring in this and all that white space too! Fabulous how you used the Kraft for the sentiment. Thanks for joining us at Time Out
