Hey there,
Well here I again again with my favourite colours, well some of my favourite colours and a tag, how happy can a girl be?!!
So today my tag combines challenges for the fab new challenge frilly and funkie and inkiness for unruly paperarts reader quest a great new blogzine, as well as a few others, details at end.
So here she is:
I started by creating a background using the wrinkle free distress technique..for my inky background and my favourite blue distress inks. when dry I added these great flourishes using broken china and then black archival to give a contrast.
The sentiment, a fab one in my opinion was also stamped in black archival.
The butterfly was some pre cut grungeboard wings which I used the shattered stains Tim technique, from creative chemistry course.
I added some ebay stuff, ideaology (of course)!! and some of the floral trim from crafty individuals...i bought a lot!!!!
I love the colours in this and hope that you do too!
I am entering this for the following competitions:
inky backgrounds for unruly blogzine @ http://unrulypaperarts.blogspot.co.uk/
sentiment as the focus, i'll take your word for it @ http://frillyandfunkie.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/ill-take-your-word-for-it.html
