To Colour or Not to Colour...

I created this set of fun cards for a birthday for one of my nieces & just as I was about to colour, thought "No, she can do that".  This way it will be something that she hashelped create for her little friends.  I then made a matching basket to give them a home.  I am also trying to use my stash of DSP & stamps before the new Catalogue comes out!

The cards all measure 4" x 4".  They have been stamped directly onto Whisper White Cardstock using Basic Gray Ink.

I cut strips of DSP about 1 1/2" x 4", punched the sides with different Border Punches & adhered them to the side of the cards.

For my flowers, I have used ones from my box of goodies, some are SU Flowers, while others are pre-SU!  I adhered Basic Pearls to the centre of the flowers.

The Basket is made from Whisper White Cardstock & covered with the same DSP as I've used on the cards.  I attached flowers to the sides & front.  For my handle, I used a piece of DSP, punched a border down both sides & adhered to the sides of the basket.

Supplies -
Stamp Set - Pun Fun
Ink - Basic Gray
Cardstock - Whisper White
DSP - Sweet & Sour Speciality
Punches - Scallop Edge Border, Scallop Trim Border, Eyelet Border, Pinking Hearts Border
Accessories - SU Flowers, Basic Pearls, Adhesive Snail

Until next time, Enjoy!

Love it. Love the colours, and the sheer brilliance of letting the children add their own creative touch. Thanks for sharing.
