To see the favourites and creations from the design team please visit the blog.

I chose from February 2022 # 172 Use Washi Tape. I have loads of it. Why? I have no idea, I love it but just don't use it enough, so here was another reason to use some. The main white card is 7 x 5 in. covered with a pretty reddy/tan colour, embossed using an embossing folder. The white panel has strips of Washi tape. The flower  is on a circle base of Washi tape. The sentiment stamp is by Lisa Horton. I hope you like my card and feel you will enter the challenge.

My card is a 6 x4 in, I coloured the edge of a white card with the broad end of a Promarker to give it the appearance of being a layer. The panel has been coloured with Worn Lipstick and blended with Picked Rasberry. The flower heads were stamped with the Picked Rasberry.  The sweet pea stamps were stamped onto white card, coloured with Promarkers, fussy cut then adhered to the card.
