Tuesday taggers... out of my comfort zone by 10 miles!

Sally chose the challenge at TUESDAY TAGGERS this week.... THANK YOU SALLY!!!!! Not!!! But seriously it made me 'think' so its a brilliant challenge... and its to step out of your comfort zone.... DO SOMETHING THATS NOT YOUR USUAL THING.......
So for you sally.... i went with white.... normally black.... and patterned mirri card.... normally dull or well inked! Or both! I used one of the GODDESS stamps from SMEARED INK http://www.smearedink.com/ embossed in gold..... cut down and mouned on gold mirricard... then i mounted that onto white card i'd punched all the edges on... then on more mirricard.... then more white... more mirri and finally onto a white card base. I added flower brads to 3 corners of the punched white card layer and 3 silk flowers with brads in the centre and gold ribbon to the fourth corner.
This is as far from my normal style as i could get.....( the only thing more unlike 'me' would be a fur-fabric pink cat) GOLD,WHITE, FLOWERS, LAYERS, AND RIBBON...... BUT I AM PLEASED WITH HOW LOVELY THE STAMP LOOKS EMBOSSED..... CLASSY!
NOT ME AT ALL!!!
Thanks for stopping by, please come and join us this week and do something totally different.... thank you sally..... i really enjoyed the challenge!
love lynx

  14. As everyone before has said....absolutely awesome. Maybe coming out of comfort zones should be encouraged more often because you certainly came out of yours big time and with big style.
