Spot the Mistake

 Morning and we have a  new ATG/Autumn Colours challenge at Stamping Sensations  with a prize from  Stamp Addicts.

I went with Autumn colours and made a gatefold card using Blazing Poppies stamp from IndigoBlu coloured with Ecoline and promarkers. Ripped the edges and edged with distress ink-I made a similar piece for the insert to write on. Patterned papers from CraftOclock.




PLEASE NOTE IF ANY CHALLENGES HAVE DIGIS FOR PRIZES-I AM JUST PLAYING FOR FUN AND SUPPORT AS I HAVE NO PRINTER 


I glued the image on upside down -so opening wrong way-which would have fine but made the script papers inside upside down-so before I send will stamp another little butterfly to cover the upside down one lol.

One great thing about making our own cards is that we can usually cover up those "oops" moments with something beautiful and distracting. I wouldn't have noticed had you not pointed it out because it's a beautiful card!

Alyson Mayo said...

Those flowers are so pretty! Thanks for sharing with us at Double Trouble :)

Ellibelle said...

Such a beautiful image and gorgeous gatefold card made with it. Glad I am not the only one who manages to glue images upside down. That said I cannot notice anything wrong with this one, maybe it's already fixed?
Thank you so much for sharing at my Crafty Wednesday challenge!

Gorgeous card inside and out. I think this is one of those images that can be used any way vertical and horizontal going by other samples ive seen using it.

Leslie Miller said...

It took me a while to spot a mistake, and I was looking closely. I must need my eyes checked. Now that you mention it, though, I can't unsee it. It's definitely worth fixing as it's so pretty. Love the fold and the image on the front.

Love the creativity behind this gatefold card! The autumn colors and the Blazing Poppies stamp bring such warmth, and the ripped edges add a beautiful touch. A little butterfly to fix the upside-down image? Genius!
