ANYONE FOR ANYA CHALLENGE NO. 5


And my second card today is for Anyone for Anya Challenge No. 5 - "Funky Flowers" - see something flowery on your cards. I have used one of the stamps from The Greeting Farm "Miss Anya Dressy" Collection, and she has been coloured with Sakura Gel Pens. The image has been cut with a round nesty, and layered on pink and pale yellow card. The backing papers are from a Basic Grey paper pad called Porcelain. I made my "funky flowers" using about 5cm of satin ribbon, and loosely stitched along the bottom of one side of the ribbon, then pulled the stitching together to form a gather, and then stitched the two short sides together. The flowers were finished off with a spacer and pearl brad, and then positioned on top of a slightly bigger paper flower. The card has been finished off with a stamped sentiment, and some pink gems from my craft stash. Thanks so much for stopping by, and hope you have a great day! Off to Ally Pally tomorrow... can't wait!
