Its anything goes at Indigo Blu

Hello there! How are you today? I'm here to bring you news of the latest Indigo Blu challenge the theme of which this time is 'Anything Goes'. You can get full information and details plus more inspiration here. Basically though you can do anything as long as you use Indigo Blu stamps/products.

Here's what I have done:


I used two stamp sets here:


I gave my card a base coat of grandma's teacup and when dry used a stencil brush and the texture stencil to add some detail in town house teal. I also used the stamps from the texture stamp set to add more details on the background including some in flitterglu and flake.




The large butterfly was stamped in archival ink then coloured in pencils, fussycut and added.


The sentiment comes from an older Indigo blu stamp set b-f-f-a5-red-rubber-stamp

I hope you can join us this month!

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:


Big hugs!
