Spring Crocus

Hello crafters,
This fortnight, the Allsorts challenge optional theme, chosen by Ellie is "Spring Flowers". As usual, you can also enter with an "anything goes" theme.

The focal image is the Crocus from AALL & Create stamp set #624, which I stamped with Memento inks in Grape Jelly and Pear tart. I used the words from the same stamp set around the crocus with Versafine black.

I then masked the flower and used Distress Oxide inks on a polymer plate, spritzed with water to add colour to the background. 

Some stencilling with a trellis stencil (Creative Stamping issue 111) with Distress Oxide in scattered straw, 

I used coloured pencils to fill in the petals and stalk and die cut the image and mat with the AALL & Create Numberama die set (#33 ), affixing the whole onto a white base card.

Hop over to the Allsorts blog to see all the DT inspiration and upload your projects. Prizes of stamps and stencils from AALL and Create (winners will receive random selection from those shown below) 

 

Thanks for coming by,
