Yarn Lover Rose

Morning and welcome to my new follower Alka-and we have a new challenge at A Inky Mess sponsored by SCrap N Dipity-I chose Yarn Lover Rose because I had the perfect B.paper to go with-I made my card using said paper and coloured the image in distress inks-the blue dress seeped into the skin-I had promised grandaughters we would go swimming today so when we got home I printed another image,played safe with colouring with promarkers which then didn't match papers-next added Brushos to wet baby wipe which I wasn't happy with so pressed a piece of white card over the top and because the wipe was on corrugated cardbord I captured the texture and colouring was a lot brighter so decided to use as a backing paper.I knitted a few rows on thin needles then transfered on to cocktail sticks with wooden beads stuck on the ends-I then stamped a freebie ruler stamp round three sides and when I posted the card saw the top one was upside down!!! Got round that by covering with watermark lol--so here is the finished completely different card to the one I started with but which TBH I actually like a lot better lol.

    Oh this one is really cool! Love the knitting theme, and that you added such texture with the tiny piece of it. Also loved your idea with the brusho on baby wipes. Never thought of that, but it made a most interesting background to this pretty girl. Great coloring too! TFS & Hugs

    We are our own worst critics! Personally, I wouldn't have noticed the ruler, too busy taking in your creative needles and great coloring. So happy you joined us on the PIP challenge this week.

    This is so cute! Thank you for joining our Challenge a few weeks ago at Word Art Wednesday. We have a week left on our current Challenge and I hope you join us again. Leaving you with the inspiration of God's Word in Psalm 84:11 and it says, "For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly." Have a blessed week.
