....... that's because I'm super excited and extremely honoured to be joining Chrissie and Mandi as guest designer for the Lucky Dip challenge . I thoroughly enjoy the challenges at Less is More, in fact it was the first challenge blog I played along with when I started my blog last February so it has a special place in my creative calender :0)..... so what's instore for you this week.... a photo inspiration challenge!
You can take your inspiration from the photo or the colours, it's entirely up to you and I'll be honest, I find these a little more difficult to play along with so I've gone quite literal with a daisy chain, it was the first thing I thought of looking at the underside of the flowers :0)
The daisies are made from two punched flowers edged with Victorian Velvet DI and the centres are the punch-outs from my cropodile, they are the perfect size and the discs are slightly shaped too.
I hand cut the stems with a knife so I could get them nice and narrow, fiddly to stick down though!
Slight hiccup with the sentiment....after stamping it I noticed the 'flowers' is drooping...ha ha, Well that's what happens when you pick them !!!
Why don't you click HERE and visit the Less is More blog to see Chrissie and Mandi's beautiful creations, they're the driving force behind the brilliant challenges and provide us with amazing inspiration every week as well as visiting every single submission to leave encouraging comments...that's what I call dedication :0)
I hope you play along too, I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's crafty take on the photo challenge.
Thanks for visiting me :0)
