Morning everyone, I hope that you are all well and enjoying your Sunday. It’s time for a new challenge to start over at the PanPastel Challenge Blog and this week our theme is Summer Time. The winner will receive a fab PanPastel starter kit (colours may vary) from our regular sponsor Your Creativity Store.
So here is my attempt at a summery card
To make this card I have used an 8″x8″ shaped card blank, I cut 3 pieces of white embroidered cotton 1 medium, 1 small, 1 large, on the small one I stamped a Tim Holtz sentiment. For the larger pieces I added colour to them using PanPastels I wanted to have some colour variation on the fabric so I added colour to the fabric by scrunching it up and rubbing the fabric in to two different shades of PanPastels then unscrunching it, rescrunching it and repeating the process on a different area of the fabric. I used Hansa Yellow and Yellow Ochre for the larger piece and Chromium Oxide Green and Hansa Yellow for the smaller piece, when I was happy with the coverage I sprayed them with cheap hairspray to fix them. I have then used a piece of yellow sari silk ribbon, some sunflowers from my flower stash and some die cuts cut out using a Memory box die to decorate my card.
Thank you for reading this post, as always I love to read your comments and I hope you will pop over to the PanPastel challenge blog to join in with us.
