Flamingo sunset . . . Southern Girls style

It's time for another challenge with us at the Southern Girls.

This fortnight Team Lou have created projects to inspire you for the new challenge

Challenge #174 - Anything Goes with Team Lou

Our generous sponsors for this challenge are:

*** EDITED 2019 ***
Lacy Sunshine Stamps is now Colour Of Love

~~~*~~~*~~~

Today I have used the Flamingo Sunset Tangled Gems Collection digital stamp by Lacy Sunshine, one of our generous sponsors this fortnight.

I printed the image on A5 X-Press It blending card, heat set then coloured with Copic markers.  I confess that I used a pre-scored card base, trimming the front stepper sections off an A5 stepper card.  I matted the image panel, trimming the black cardstock down to give a 1/16" border with my Perfect Layers ruler, then adhered it to the card front, along with the layered die cut sentiment.  I triple matted the inside of the card to match the front.
