Sponging with the Unrulies

Hi everyone,


Sorry, second posting from me today and I have to warn you, there's probably going to be a third!


I've taken a break from tackling the mountain of ironing to make a card for the first Unruly Paperarts Challenge - Reader Art Quest 1 - Sponging Spectacular (which closes in a matter of hours).


Art Quest 2 also closes today, which is why I will probably be back!



I Stamped the Paper Artsy Flower Head and Stampin Up Sentiment in black archival.  Then sponged circles with Crushed Olive and Spiced Marmalade using a swirly template.


Thanks for taking a peek.

Oh lovely swirls and the colours contrast spectacularly with the black. I find most of my most creative moments coincide with putting off the ironing!

Love those sponged circles Suze! I really do like that stamp and on the few occasions I've spotted it on my travels, I always think 'I need that stamp' (along with all the other things on my list!!).
Simple, elegant and beautiful sums it up!
