Garden Girl Poppy - IAS #66

Hello my friends and Happy Sunday. First day of September. I hope you are having a good Labor Day weekend and that if you are in the path of Hurricane Dorian that you stay safe and protected. I have friends and family in Florida and praying for them and everyone that may be affected.

I am still getting used to this "retirement." It seems so odd to be home all day. I am still keeping busy with lots to do around the house and in my craft room. School will start up again in two weeks and that will start to fill a lot of my time also.

This card I have for this International Art & Soul challenge is from a kit I bought some time ago from Heather's Hobbie Haven and finally had time to ink it up. Our theme this fortnight is Anything Goes with Layer It Up. A lovely easy challenge with so many ways to include as many layers as you like with layers of designer paper, embossed folders, die cuts, flowers or other embellishments on your creations - the list is so long; we just know this challenge will get your creative juices flowing.

 




 Materials Used:
  • Image - Stamping bella - Tiny Townie Garden Girl Poppy
  • Sentiment - Stamping bella - Garden Girl Flower Sentiments
  • Card stock - Neenah 80# Solar white; Marshmallow and Raven card stock
  • Designer Paper - Paisley & Vine - Vineland, Passion, and Bohemian
  • Accessories - MFT - Stitched rectangle die; La La Land Crafts - Lacy Heart and Hearts Flurry Border; Stampin Up - black rhinestones; black gel pen

I hope you will hop on over to the IAS challenge page and check out what the rest of the design team has created. While you're there, link up your card and maybe you will be chosen as the winner or picked as one of the Top 3.

    Oh, my gosh, I love these Bella flower girls! I still have a few that were gifted to me I haven't colored yet. You did such a beautiful job on this. The papers look so pretty with her! I heard Dorian changed course, so I'm hoping all my Florida friends will be safe. You'll continue to find plenty to do in retirement, I'm sure. Some folks are better at staying occupied than others. I never have enough hours in the day. School will give you more than enough to do, and how nice that you won't have to divide your attention between school and work. I'm happy for you!
