Four Seasons – June Summer Challenge

It’s the start of our next season over at Four Seasons Challenge, where we are starting our first month recognizing SUMMER! Anything goes as long as it follows a summer theme. Our inspiration board is just meant to give you some ideas. This challenge will be open until June 25th so we hope you find time to join us this month!

I ended up making two cards for this challenge, this is the first one over on the Four Seasons blog. It was a pretty simple design, using a stamp from Simon Says Stamp, but I just can’t remember where the wreath/flower dies are from!

For the second card the background was made with a slimline stencil, which I used with some white embossing paste with a little green ink added to it. The flowers were stamped with different shades of pink Distress Oxide inks and the color drawn out with some water. I die cut them and arranged them over the leaves, added the bird, and finished it off with the sentiment.

Other challenges for the second card only:

Dream Valley Challenges #271 – summer time colors
