Good morning.
Time for another fun theme at
We are being sponsored by Top Flight Stamps this month. They are kindly giving our winner an e-gift card for $25. Please check out there website as they have some amazing crafty things there.
Our guest this month is Tracy from whoistracy.
Here are my card details.
I began by placing this small circle stencil called Pick up Sticks...fun eh? It's a smaller stencil so no need to mask the areas around.
Using some Carved Pumpkin DOX ink, I rubbed the center of the stencil then added some Candied Apple around the edges. I removed the stencil and placed the piece into my Misti to stamp the flowers and this great sentiment from STAMPlorations.
To help pull the whole design together, I doodled in a line around the circle.
I simply mounted it onto a piece of orange cs then onto a heavy white card base.

Fabulous design Karen, love your colours, Kate x
Blast from the past with the pick up sticks Karen x I so like how you've used just part of the stencil and what fabulous colours. Striking design and the pop of black is stunning x.
I love the bright colours you have used with this stencil Karen and the doodled lines around the circle plus the flower stem and the great sentiment really make it work beautifully. x
cool background design for your flowers :)
What a wonderful stencil, Karen! I love the fall colors and that fantastic sentiment with the silhouette wildflowers!
Very cool! Loving the bold colours and design.
What a wonderful card Karen, and a great interpretation of the challenge - loving the colours you have used! Your doodled line is the perfect finishing detail
Blessings

This is such a fun and creative design, Karen. I LOVE that stencil ... especially done in the bright shades of orange. Fabulous with the large sentiment and silhouette flowers. The doodled border adds a special touch. xx
