Blue colour challenge

The challenge this week hosted by Gill at CBGM is to create a card using blue as the colour. I chose to make an easel card and used a digi stamp of coneflowers from Paper Garden Projects and coloured it with promarkers. I matted onto blue card and added some glitter to the stamens and a ribbon bow. The base I ghost stamped using blue marvy matchable ink and the sentiment was printed with my Xyron runner. I added blue pearls to finish.
Good luck with the challenge!

I love the ghost stamping on the base card. It's stunning. Have fun in Brixham next week. It's only a few miles from where i am in Torquay and the weather is meant to be dry this week (a likely story!). I've got a work's BBQ on Thursday so it had better stay dry for that. I don't want a damp burger!!!

What a really lovely ghost stamping card! Your image is just elegant and the ghost stamping on the base just makes it more so, and the ribbon adds too!
