The Blessing

Good Morning all!

It's Thursday already! How's your week been?

A good one I hope!

So, it's time for me to share a Just Inklined card with you!

This time, I've made a little sympathy card.

I always find them a challenge to make.

The gorgeous image I have used is called 

The Blessing

.I think it's just perfect for such an occasion but would also be 

suitable for other religious occassions such as 

Christenings, Confimations, Wedding Blessings etc.

I made the sentiment on my PC using a free font called

Sweetly Broken 

Here's a closer look at the image, coloured up with my promarkers

 & inked with Milled Lavender Distress Ink.

I've used a Cuttlebug Script embossing folder for the white mat.

I did brush over it with the distress ink but it doesn't

show up at all in the photos!

I also added a little piece of satin ribbon from my stash.

Thanks for the visit, leave me some love & I will

try to visit you & do the same!

I'd like to enter this card in a few little challenges:

Shades Of One

Good morning lovelies,

I hope you're all well!

I have a card to share with you today!

This is my DT card for the current challenge over at The Crafting Cafe.
Shades of One 

I've used a Bugaboo Digital Stamp from my stash called

Penguin Joy

 Bugaboo are one of our sponsors this month.

We are also sponsored by 

Scribble & Scrap

(I had hoped to make a card using one of the images supplied 

by them too but I just ran out of time!)

My card is a little A6 tent fold card.

I used my favourite Linen Embossed CS from The Range

for the base & added a mat of black CS which I embossed with

two little border folders, I think they are from Papermania.

The little baubles/lights are embossed & I 

debossed the snowflakes for a bit of variety!

The image was partially coloured using my promarkers & I added some

Frosted Lace Stickles for a bit of detail!

(looks like they may have had a bit of a reaction with my pinter ink!)

I added some narrow gingham ribbon from my stash,

to the top & bottom of the image, just to finish it off! 

This card is destined to go to a "Bah Humbug" type of person! Lol

I hope you like it! 

I also hope you will share your Shades of One/Monochromatic 

 projects with us at The Crafting Cafe!
