Creative Crew February 2023

 Hi all, I'm here finally. Talk about a mix up. I brought my finished card to my daughters to photograph and write my post, but, I brought the card and looked high and low for my iPad and it was at home.😒. But I'm here now and am ready to go.

First off thank you Darlene for the fun kit. It was fun working with and I learned some new things.

This month Darlene is our hostess  and her theme of choice was "What's your birthstone?" My oh my I found out a lot when I did some research on my month. I was born in June my sign is Gemini. Apparently June has 3 birthstones pearl, moonstone and alexandrite. Pearl and moonshine is generally white with other colors highlighting it. Alexandrite usually is lavender covering many colors even dark green.

Darlene sent us a kit that had dsp papers and images from the Prism kit from Club Scrap along with ribbons, rhinestones and sequins. After reading all that I had about my birthstone I was really struggling on what color to use for my image. I settled on purple. On my card I used the prism paper for the background of my die cut and with the left over I used it for a panel on the front of the card. I used  purple rhinestones and one of the sentiments cut apart on the front and inside. After i colored the image I fussy cut it out and then mounted it on mounting tape and placed it on the due cut. Inside I used the 2nd half the sentiment. I colored the letters in with a sparkly purple gel pen. Here is my card:

Here is the inside of my card:

 

Thank you for stopping by. I really appreciate it. Please take a few minutes to stop by the blogs of the other creative crew members. I am sure you will not be disappointed.

Until next time,

Hugs,
