For my card I used the "turning over a new leaf" woodblock stamp.  Die cut using a Gina Marie Designs die and leaf die.  Various designer papers in fall colors used to create background layers.  Image colored using Copic markers.  The leaf die cut was stamped using a sentiment from Penny Black Happy Snippets set.  Embellished using a brown gingham multi-loop bow.

The Outlawz Songs & Rhymes Challenge


This week's Songs & Rhymes Challenge theme is from this song:
Song of the Lavender fairy 
from Flower Fairies of the Garden book by Cicely Mary Barker
"Lavender's blue, diddle diddle" - So goes the song; All round her bush, diddle diddle,
Butterflies throng; (They love her well, diddle diddle, So do the bees;)
While she herself, diddle diddle, Sways in the breeze
"Lavender's blue, diddle diddle, Lavender's green"; She'll scent the clothes, diddle diddle,
Put away clean - Clean from the wash, diddle diddle, Hanky and sheet;
Lavender's spikes, diddle diddle, Make them all sweet!
(The word "blue" was often used in old days where we should say "purple" or "mauve")

For my card, I used the retired Stampin Up set Fairies.  Stamped the image using VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink and colored using Nuvo Watercolor Pencils and an aquabrush.  I embellished with sequins.

We hope you'll share your cards/projects using this week's theme as inspiration.  The Outlawz Songs & Rhymes Challenge found HERE.
