I'm so relieved the week is over. It's been a mix of good and bad but the thing that sticks out is my little one chipped his tooth at school. I dread calls from school and when I heard about how another child had swung his bag and hit my little one in the face I was very concerned especially as it was his adult tooth. After picking him up I learnt it was a metal keychain from the bag that had hit and chipped the tooth. Thankfully the dentist checked it and there was no nerve damage so I was relieved.
Over on the Daring Cardmakers being the first Friday in the month it is the March Elemental Challenge and here is my take on it:
I used a brand new Time for Tea Designs background die which fits perfectly on an A6 card. I used distress oxides to make the background going in with a lighter colour in the middle.
All the images were stamped, coloured with my chameleon pens and die cut then arranged in a die cut circle. I added Nuvo Drops to finish. I was surprised to find that the colour from the distress oxide inks bled into the drops when I looked this morning so thought I should point this out. I've never had an issue combining distress inks and Nuvo Drops.
This is the image from which you need to choose at least 3 elements, colour counts as one. I chose the colours, octopus and the circle from the O.
I hope that you'll join in with the Challenge as I love to see what you create. You can see more inspiration from the rest of the Design Team HERE.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Shabneez
