Daring Cardmakers Elemental Challenge for April


Hello friends, followers and anyone passing by.  Today is the start of another Daring Cardmakers challenge and as it is the start of another month it is an elemental inspirations challenge. 

This month Nat is hosting the challenge and has given us this gorgeous inspirational picture.  As always pick three or more elements from the picture to use in your cardmaking, the colour palette being one choice.  More details and the design team inspirational cards can be found over on the Daring Cardmakers Blog.


I chose the man with the umbrella, circles (the mobile) and the colours yellow and orange (flowers) and a little beige to make this get well card.


I used a small piece of inky card left over from making my grandson's birthday card, umbrella man from Tim Holtz Paper Artistry set and a Penny Black sentiment.


I stamped the umbrella man directly onto the card using black Archival ink using a stamping platform.  Placed the inked panel over the image and glued it down before stamping the image again.  The sentiment was added above the image.

Check out the Daring Cardmakers blog for more information of the challenge, we would love to see your take on the inspirational picture.
