June Colour Swap

Lavender and Green.
No matter how I try, I cannot get the thought of Lavender, the flower, out of my mind.  I will go with it and see how my cards turn out.


I water coloured the background with a lavender wash  ......

I used some of the free stamps given away with Making Cards magazine and then coloured with Inktense pencils.

A topper from my stash was just the right colour for this card, then I tied a green ribbon around the lower edge.

I used a piece of wall paper for this card, again adding ribbons.  I glued a strip of green spotted ribbon along the lower edge and then added a piece of narrower lavender ribbon along the centre of the green.

I received the following cards:



A very pretty collage.
Thank you Kate.

At first look, I thought that this was stencilled and stamped with a die cut.   Still can't make my mind up .....

Thank you Liz.

A delicately stamped card.

Thank you Philippa.
