Here is the sketch that I got work with - and now you have until next Monday to play with it too. Lots of room to play on this one!
I just got an order including some stamps from Altenew. I have loved what I've seen done with the Hennah Elements, but after I got it, I realized I was a little intimidated by it. It's a builder type set and if you search on the set, you will see the gorgeous patterns that people have created. I'm not a great "builder" - particularly with random patterns. So I decided the small panel on this sketch was a great way to practice. Even though my card doesn't have all of the incredible frills that others have incorporated - I love how it came together.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on being guest designer! You deserve it. Your cards are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHuge Congrats to you on your guest DT-member for the month of August!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen this colorcombo before I think, but I have to admit it's totally GORGEOUS!
WoW, all fits just pefectly!
Your cards don't need any frills or other stuff!
They're great the way you make them!
(sigh, sorry for my Dunglish again) :-(
Bye,
Marjolein
Who needs frills when you can create something like this without them. This is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad I'm not the only one intimidated by this set! I love it and greatly admire all the cards I've seen use it, but have doubts that I can combine all the images effectively. You, however, have clearly jumped in with both feet and combined the images perfectly!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the FMS team! So happy you're here!!
Wonderful colors, beautifully colored and it all came together perfectly! This is beautiful! And I am so happy you are going to hang out with us for a while!
ReplyDeleteYAY congrats to you Kim!! Your debut card is beautiful, love the rich colors!
ReplyDeleteI tried to use this beautiful set for my DT card too, but I'm not such a great "builder" either. More practice needed for me! But this is just gorgeous! It all fits together beautifully and I love the color combo! So great to have you on the team this month.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Kim! I love those flowers and that fabulous colouring! Such rich beautiful colours! Love those purple sequins!!! So glad you've joined us team for the month!

ReplyDeleteKim I really like the colors you used and the card...WOW!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being the August GD - and what a gorgeous card for your first round! You've shown wonderful creativity with this set; no extra frills required! The Altenew stamps are delights, but so beyond my abilities. Builder sets are intimidating!! Love the colours, too!!
