They are the £1.49 foam stamps from Paperamia/Docrafts (cool eh) ... and Adirondak paint daubers in two colours !

My interpretation of the stamped one ....... (sorry its on an angle, but scanner was playing up ) !!

Hi, thought I'd better make an effort from now on and do some of these wonderful challenges.
This is quite a simple one as I just used a peel off but I did make the paper by hand that I stuck it to.

Take care
Andrea

**Dragonfly Jane** · 11-05-2007, 04:19 PM

hello
it's the first time i have pop on this part of the fourm and it's really good, i will try to have ago at this may challenge. I'v not made any cards for ages (terrrible confession, i have been buying them

) this might start me off again

**Sharon Betts** · 11-05-2007, 07:45 PM

Kerry - you can do 1 or all or a few of them, the challenge is just for inspiration for you to interpret in any way you like, and all just for fun. I like to try and join in, as it challenges me to do things I might not normally do. Though I did follow the challenge this month, I posted the card (late) before I'd had a chance to scan it!! Still, early days, and 4 more birthdays this month.....

Here is one I have done. Rubbish scan - I prefer to photograph my cards and LO's. No light to do it in now though - might redo the pic via camera tomorrow

The purply paper is shiny - the butterfly is double layered and raised with silicone glue.
*EDITED - Card now photographed - rubbish scan disposed of!

2nd card - another crappy scan I'm afraid.
Stamped the vase - coloured the "water" in with glitter chalks. Forever flowers held in place by brads - drew in the green stalks - mounted the main pic on raised foam pads - inked the edges of the card to finish it off.
