Sweet Pea Stamps Variations Week - June 2013

Over at Sweet Pea Stamps Blog it is time for Variations Week.  This takes place on the second week of the month.  All of the Design Team are given the same image to use in their own way and each day on the Sweet Pea Stamps Blog you see different creations.  I obviously love Sweet Pea Stamps but I always looked forward to this week of the month to see the variety of creations.  Now being part of the Design Team I get to take part.

This month the image that we have been given to use is called "Red, White and Blue" and is by the talented Artist Karen Middleton.  The image is available in a rubber stamp. I decided I wanted to keep the colour scheme to red, white and blue as per the name of the stamp.  I love this colour scheme.  I have coloured the image with my Promarkers and highlighted areas with my Sakura Stardust pen.

The backing papers I have used were a freebie last year with the DoCrafts Creativity Magazine for our Queen's Diamond Jubilee.  It also included a sheet of little postcards so I have used one of these and torn it in half.  I have finished the card off with some Papermania Glitterations, selection of buttons, red/white and blue/white twine twisted together and a Craftwork Cards die-cut sentiment.

If you have enjoyed looking at my card please pop on over to the Sweet Pea Stamps Blog to look at the rest of the Design Team creations throughout the week.
