Feeling Blue - Daring Cardmakers DT

Happy New Year!

How are you? It feels like such a long time since I last blogged but a lot has happened since my last post.  December was manic with work commitments and commissions then as soon as the school holidays began we went on a much needed family break to Rome.  It was absolutely wonderful - fabulous weather, delicious food and stunning historical sites.

The boys are back to school now and I only started crafting again earlier this week.  In fact this is the first card I've made this year!  Being the beginning of a new month it's the elemental challenge on the Daring Cardmakers and it's entitled 'Feeling Blue' and is paying homage to the 2020 Panetone Colour of the Year.


I chose my Zig Clean Color Pens to colour my flower and it was just so relaxing.  I do miss colouring when I haven't done it for a while.  I used a stencil with distress inks for my background and added a sentiment to finish.  A simple one to start the year I think!


Here is the image from which you need to choose at least 3 elements.  I chose the flower, colours and tile style background.


You can find lots more inspiration from my fellow DT members HERE.  Hope you'll join in!

Have a great weekend and see you again soon!
