Monday Morning Blues


Happy Monday!
This card for made for my sister-in-law.
I went with shades of blue for the base.
I then used papers from IndigoBlu magazine,
chopping them up and adding lots of layers.
I stitched around the main piece with my
sewing machine, added some lace across the middle.
I then stamped the flower and coloured
with my markers.
I die cut lots of leaves and inked some up
for added texture behind the main flower.
I then stamped the sentiment and layered
up in the same backing cards.
I added a few layers of ribbon and some
more layers before adding the sentiment
and flower.
I stamped the butterfly onto a scrap of the
paper I had used and then made
a wax melt in a similar colour
and added with some fibres.
I finished with a little bow.

Items used
papers IndigoBlu and card from my stash
stamps from IndigoBlu,
Woodware, Contact USA, Stampin Up
 and CreateKrafts.
Dies from SU and Tattered Lace.
Lace, Ribbon, wax, sewing machine
and fibres.

I would like to enter this into

I hope you all have a good week
and I'm sending hugs to those struggling.
