Allsorts Challenge ~ Summer Blues

Another Saturday and another Allsorts Challenge, this time hosted by Mervi. Mervi has chosen the theme 'Summer Blues'.  I decided to make a blue monochrome card.

The base card was covered with blue and white floral paper, with about a third of the front cut off. The blue leaves and vase were stamps from the Stampin' Up 'Boho Indigo' set, stamped with Versafine Clair 'Blue Belle'.  The vase it raised up with foam pads and three little white flowers added.  The layered sentiment is also raised up on foam pads.

I put a layered panel inside for the message and stamped a few flowers in the corner.

Prizes from Oakwood, SizzixAALL and Create and Craft Stash, please visit our Patrons page to read more about each.

The DT have made some wonderful cards, so please hop over to the Allsorts Challenge blog to see what they have created for inspiration.

I am joining in the following challenges:
