(5) Shapes by Design

I have been officially sharing my sneak peaks for 5 days. Do you know what that means? Only 5 more days until release day. Today marks the official countdown (Nichole style). You can expect to see similar countdowns during release time from now on.

Today's card is a quick card. When I created the circles I saw many possibilities. On of my favourite things right now is scallops...but I like creative scallops. Here you can see I used the circle stamp to stamp a pattern across the card.
Next, I used my copic marker to colour in the flower centres. Then I placed layered paper strips over part of the circles. I finished it off by adding a brad and stamping a sentiment.



Supplies
paper: Stampers Select White by Papertrey Ink, Chocolate Chip by SU!, Bashful Blue by SU!
ink: Adirondack Earthtones (Mushroom) by Ranger
stamps: Shapes by Design (Urban Design by Alli Miles) Papertrey Ink
accessories: white fab brad by Bazzill


Have a super day.

Alli

P.S. My surprise: I will be awarding one lucky reader one of my stamp sets! Stay tuned...

I really like this card! Simple, but a rather bold design with those large flowered "scallops".
