Floral inspiration

Hello lovely people,

Ok, who is stealing days from the week when I'm not looking?!

Yes, it's Thursday again so get ready for a new challenge at In The Pink and this time we have a photo inspiration for you...

You could choose florals, vintage style, teacups, whatever inspires you from this photo as long as it has more PINK than any other colour of course!

We are delighted to be sponsored by The Hobby House for this challenge with a prize of a £10 voucher.

I have used a pre-coloured image from one of the LOTV art pads as it fitted the theme so beautifully with the pretty floral design and a teacup too!
I do love my Copics but these pretty toppers definitely save a bit of time and are absolutely gorgeous.

This is the first outing for my new MFT Die-namics inside & out stitched rounded square STAX dies (wow, that's a bit of a mouthful!) which I used to create a frame for the image.

I used one of the dies to cut an aperture and then trimmed the outside to make a frame which I raised up by popping several more frames cut from scrap card underneath.
I could have used foam pads but the result can be a bit wobbly looking and I find scrap card more effective and it adds a very subtle dimension.
