Hi!
Happy Sunday from me! I hope you are having a fabulous weekend!
A rare blog post from me, because I saw the Newton's Nook Inky Paws Challenge this month and HAD to enter -
I love bold colours.
One of my all-time fave NND sets is 'Newton Dreams of London', not just because I am from London, but because I love the cute little English/London stamps. I overuse the Big Ben and bus stamps.
I used a Taylored Expressions square windows stencil to create my colourful blocks. If you look carefully you will see it is wonky, the stencil is so old it has warped with extensive use.
I used Altenew inks and their matching markers for my colours - Coral Berry, Turquoise, Ultraviolet and Citrus Burst. I think they are a perfect match. I coloured and die-cut the cute little buses and used foam tape to pop them up. Final touch was a birthday sentiment from my stash.
Fun card. I have had a lot of fun at my desk this weekend, mainly making DT things, so it was fun to play with no agenda, other than fitting the challenge.

Claire, this card is so you! The fun designs of London - your beautiful home away from home! I love the design and the postage collage look! Thanks for joining the Inky Paws Challenge! (^..^)/
ReplyDeleteAw thanks Kelly. I do love a little London bus!
DeleteOh, I haven't seen this set used in ages! I love your busses and your color block design is wonderfully done! So glad you were able to squeeze in some non-DT projects! Thanks for joining us at Inky Paws!
