Hi Crafters,
A Happy New Year to you all!
Well we have started 2022 here at Allsorts with a brand new challenge, we'd like to see your creations using BLACK & WHITE plus ONE other colour.
The choice of theme is yours provided you only use 3 colours on your project - Black & White + One other colour.
Here I have created a card for a family member who is a chimney sweep. The silhouette comes from Google which I printed and cut out, my skyline is a Britannia Die and the embossed background is an older Sheena Douglas folder called Dry Stone Wall. I stamped a few random blotches from a stamp set that I own as I thought they looked like soot :o)
Challenges I'd like to enter:
Creative Knockout - #433 ATG
Our prize this week is ...
A4 Rare Earth Stamp Set
I'm sure you have some new supplies that you can't wait to start using so this is a great opportunity to get them out and make something for this new challenge. You can enter up to 3 times HERE provided each entry is a new creation and dated after the start of our challenge, ie not backdated.
Looking forward to seeing you soon,
Lorraine

Sounds like a perfect card for the recipient Lorraine and so striking as well, it was always a source of excitement when the chimney sweet came when I was a child.

Your card took me straight back to my childhood. We always rushed outside to see the brush pop out of the top of the chimney. Nostalgic times. Wishing you a Happy, Healthy and crafty New Year. Hugs Mrs A.
