Something really cool and quite different is happening over at the Pink Elephant today. Instead of our normal Thursday tutorial we are having a 'play along'. One of our DT (Robin Willis) has chosen an amazing plate design, which we hope will act as an inspirational spark for everyone's creativity.For my card I chose to focus on the diamond pattern and the flower theme of the plate. If you would like to find out more and see what the other members of the DT came up with pop over to the Pink Elephant.
It would be great if you could join in. We would really love to see how the plate inspires other people.
Materials used on this card:
- DCWV - diamond patterned paper and matching plain paper from Spring Paper Stack
- Hero Arts sentiment stamp
- jewelled brads and border peel offs from stash
- punched leaves
- large leaf swirl cut on Cricut

Ann,
your card is wonderful!! It is so funny that we both saw those diamonds and flowers right away! Also....we BOTH used a Hero Arts sentiment stamp (and a whimsical type one at that!!!) I really like the one you used! Thanks for playing along with me.

Lovely card Ann. Reminds me of the tea bag folds I used to make by the dozen. Haven't done any of those for ages.
Love

Love the way you've matched the teabag papers to the background. Fab card.

Just gorgeous Ann, I love the subtlety of the colours you've chosen

This one is really pretty Ann. I much prefer stamped sentiments to peel-off ones, it somehow seems more personal.
I may have to try a litle teabag folding once more. Great inspiration!
