Craft Punked Blog Challenge - Strawberries and Cream

Morning everyone

I have a day off work today, so i am going to do the washing up, have already washed the bedclothes and got them drying and now i am going to craft.  I have a few projects to work on and i am short on inspiration so i need to get my thinking cap on.

This weeks Craft punked challenge the is strawberries and cream and it would have been very easy for me to grab my favourite little strawberries kisses character with the strawberries in the glass but i thought no i will try something new.  So this stamp is sweet butterfly and i bought it from the craft workshop and the lovely diane where i did my demo last Saturday.  She is fab isn't she but i am not happy with my card.  I think my colouring is a bit off and I'm not happy with my embellishments.  But i do love the paper and colours.  So instead of real strawberries i went with a strawberry and cream colour theme.

I have used my Spectrum Noirs to colour and the paper is K&Co and coordination's card stock.  I have distressed the edge of my image with tea dye but i must have had some worn lipstick mixed in somewhere as it has ended up a bit red but it matches anyway.


Hope you like it and don't forget to pop over to Craft Punked and take part this week. This weeks sponsor is Joanna Sheena so you could win some fab goodies.

Hope you like it.

    I must admit you are doing far better than me, when I have a day off I tend to veg out and maybe do some crafting, if I can be bothered to get off the sofa!!!!
