Anything Goes with an optional TWIST .... Easter or Spring Flowers
Ingredients:-Anything Goes with an optional TWIST .... Easter or Spring Flowers
{create something that speaks from your heart and soul and screams you with the images you use
Welcome back to the IKEsWORLD challenges :) do pop on over to IKEsWORLD to join in the challenge, it is always so much fun and Ike produces the most amazing stamps, everything from off the wall to cute and fluffy :) :) :)
Fun time with digital :) :). I used a free image of Ike's which was given away some time ago call Snowdrops. The image was coloured digitally and used, not only for the centre panel but also for the side panels where I made a tiled pattern with the snowdrops. For the background of each panel I used a texture overlay, printed and then mounted on the card with foam tape.. The text was also created digitally directly onto the card with the word Spring filled with the tiled snowdrop pattern. A pretty simple card created mostly in my recliner while hubby was watching something incredibly boring on the TV hahahaha.
After I made the card I thought I would try something new :) It has been many years since I bothered to paint my nails but recently I got into the gel polish craze and amateurish nail art although I am practicing hahaha. Love that my nails last a good couple of weeks before having to do them again. With having the snowdrops coloured digitally and some decal laser paper I bought last year with the aim of doing mugs I thought I would see if I could make nail decals. A first attempt and several mistakes but a fun afternoon and that after all is what really counts. So here you are a pic of my nails, one hand complete the other awaiting the decals to be put on :)
and a close up of my favourite nail :)
