This is one of two posts today.
Allsorts last challenge of 2025 is starting and will run until

I went with a arch shaped card and used Lavinia stamps:

Spellbinders Perfect Touch Arches and Tags.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and blessed holiday
season.

for scene making and three stamps as second prize (photos not to scale).
A few fun challenges:
Beautiful Blossoms -Floral, optional mood board #36 1/06

Stamping Sensations (option fantasy) 1/2
We Love Stamping (option red & green) 1/2
Word Art Wednesday week #730-731 1/2
The arch design creates such a graceful frame for the scene, and the Lavinia minis work beautifully together in this scale. The balance between the soft botanical elements and the delicate butterfly gives the whole piece a gentle, storybook quality. The shaped card format adds so much presence, turning a simple scene into something that feels immersive and intentional.
ReplyDeleteVery partial to arch shaped card and this one is just so summery, just what we need to see on a cold winter day. Many thanks for joining us at Stamping Sensations and We Love Stamping challenges.

ReplyDeleteThis is such a lovely card! I really love the arch shape of it and the framing of the arches. I recently bought an arch die set, but haven’t made the entire card shaped like that. Great inspiration! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Word Art Wednesday and joining in our big blog hop!
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing and so much to see. Have a fabulous Christmas ♥
ReplyDeletelove the arch shape - I don't think I have an arch shape die so may have to cut a few when I see you. Beautiful springtime scene. Blessings to you and Steve this Christmas.
