Bella's weekly blog colour challenge

There was another challenge this week on Bella's blog.

Love the colours for this challenge. Here is the challenge photo:



Here is the card I made, using one of my new Ketto stamps. This one is Phoebe Ketto. I think that these Kettos are so original. Love them!
Anyway I had fun doing this one!

Here is a closeup of the image to view all the glitter (from the Atayou Spica pens and glitter dots on the patterned paper).



and here is a photo of the back of the card. I used SEI glittered Patterned paper as my card base. It is so pretty! and the inside of the card is pretty too!

I also used one new Nestabilities die, the Dahlia (in bright yellow). And I tried one of the techniques that I learned in Toronto from Kim of Spellbinders (such a nice lady by the way! - I had a lot of fun in her class..). So instead of cutting with just one die, you cut with 2 consecutive dies in the serie to make rings. Ask me if you want more info - I'll take photos to show in details.... (only if anyone reads this and cares to know....)...

Here is the recipe for the card:

Stamps: Stamping Bella: Phoebe Ketto, Fantabulous day 
Inks and colours: Memento Tuxedo Black, Copics markers, Atayou spica glitter markers
Papers: SEI Mimosa glitter patterned papers
Cardstock:  Stampin'Up Yoyo yellow, tangerine tango and retired wild wasabi.
Tools:  Nestabilities Dahlia and classic squares.
Embellishments:  American Crafts yellow velvet ribbon and Kaiser mini pink pearls

Thanks for coming! Merci de visiter mon blog!
