January photo inspiration challenge

The DCM challenges are back in 2016!

Up on the blog today Jo has chosen our elemental inspiration for January and there are some lovely elements to choose from. :)

Though my card is a simple one and sadly did not photograph well as it has been soooo dark during the day this past week I have taken 3 elements from the image and included them on my card:

Paper: Dear Lizzy
Dies: Neat & Tangled
Stamp: PTI
Other: cupcake case

So I went with the blue and mint colour combo, a star and a cupcake case which a transformed into a handy rosette. I also used my new Scored Shapes die from Neat & Tangled which probably works better on paper but I really like how easy it is to fold these already scored shapes without spending time doing the job yourself. ;)

I'm thinking of doing some dimensional 3D shapes with them too as they all look to be symmetrical.

Anyhoo, a very clean and simple card to kick of 2016 but I might as well ease myself back into the crafting groove. ;)

Do pop on over to the DCM blog to see the other interpretations of the elements from my fellow DT girls and join in if you get the chance!

I just love the layout of your card Nat, and the pretty colours too. The cupcake case looks brilliant

I'm surprised to see no red/pink here =). But I really like your monochrome card and the combination of elements you picked.
