Hello friends. Playing along with Lexi Daly and this weeks Make it Monday challenge, where Lexi shows us some great tips on making "focal clusters" with different stamps sets on our cards. I loved Lexi's card, but I can see where more graphic images would work better than all my "flowery" images that I'm so fond of! But anyway, I did have fun laying out different stamps from In The Meadow, Winter Hills, & City Scenes and arranging and rearranging. And now as I'm sitting here looking at my card, I'm thinking I might have missed the whole point of this challenge, as I did not focus all my stamps into one main cluster...oooops! Oh well, I like my simple card! Take a look:
I think I should have used less stamps and put them all into one area of the card, but I think I got so excited after lining up my City Scenes perfectly on my MISTI, that I forgot about what I really was supposed to be doing. So be it...it is what it is! :0)
Make sure to take some time and watch Lexi's video and then play along. You can find all the info right HERE.
Thanks so much for stopping by today...I love it when you do! :0)
So pretty! Such a wonderful use of color and I love that you angled the sentiment under the images.
ReplyDeleteI love it, Marcia! The colours are winter fun and I adore that you painted the little tree (one of my favourites) from Winter Hills.
ReplyDeleteMarcia you've done an awesome job combining all three of these sets for your card! It's perfect just the way it is...
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous and beautiful card Marcia!!
ReplyDeleteLovely scene with the sled using the sentiment as the hill. So creative.
ReplyDeleteso pretty and fun - i love how the sled is gliding right over the sentiment! thanks for playing make it monday!!
ReplyDeleteWell, I was going to say exactly what Lexi said, love that you lined up the sled over the hilly words. So clever. The card is adorable, great images together! And my dear Marcia, I always am inspired by you and your creativity! Thank you for your sweet comments, I smile whenever I see your name in my comment section!

ReplyDeleteMarcia, this is perfectly adorable!! I love the fun colors of the buildings and that sweet little child sledding over the sentiment. The gems in your snowflakes are stunning! A sweet, sweet card!!
