Craft-room Challenge 58

My second and final piece as a guest designer for the craft-room challenge, which is to use something new.
I  have used Glimering Hope which I  bought from the sadly missed Happy Daze and the arch from aperture set 1 from Stamps away,  I used this on my homemade gelli plate (one day I'll treat myself to a proper one as I love making mono prints) I have then sketched around the arch with a pen and used distress picket fence through a very old fiskar stencil and added the word Hope with some punched out butterflies.
I would also like to add my card to the Allsorts challenge which is also used your new stash

 
It's been a pleasure visiting your blogs
Thank you Craft-room challenge

I love this card, Von - great image, and that vine twirling up the archway looks so cool. The turquoise background is utterly lovely! Sorry to be so behind with visiting - after my internet problems, I've now got a work schedule which is pretty full-on.

Hi Von, your background is absolutely gorgeous! Could you please tell me more about your home made gelli plate? I love that stamp as well, Happy Daze was a favourite of mine so it will definitely be missed. It's been lovely having you as a guest designer, thank you for your beautiful creations.

Love the whole design and feel of this Von. You definitely do need to treat yourself to a Gelli plate as you are already making such a good job of using your own version. Hugs, Jenny x

Personally I am so pleased you joined us this month at Craft-Room Challenge it's been great show casing your style and seeing your takes on the themes.

I love this card, and the very delicate print but what WOW's me is the detail on the right (as you look at it) of the arch. XOXO Zoe
