Here's a sneak peek:
I also have some exciting news to share ~ today, I am sharing a project as a Guest Designer on the fabulous Frilly and Funkie Challenge Blog:
The world can be quite a chaotic place and it's so easy to get caught up in all the mayhem. Reminding a loved one or a complete stranger to believe may provide the small dose of hope and encouragement they need.
I started with plain watercolor paper which I transformed using a stencil, modeling paste, ColourArte Silks Acrylic Glaze: Sunburst and Silver Bells, stamps and embossing powder. I embellished with a beautiful chipboard heart from Gina's Designs which I covered with a crackle paste and an application of ColourArte Silks Acrylic Glaze: Silver Bells. I completed the card with a variety of Prima flowers and a Prima resin cherub:
For color inspiration, I joined along with the current Card Concept challenge:
For sketch inspiration, I joined along with this week's MOJO Monday sketch challenge:
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoy my sample for the "Something to say" challenge and I look forward to seeing what you create! Many thanks to Linda, Sue and the wildly creative DT for inviting me to share my creativity on the fabulous Frilly and Funkie Challenge Blog today. I'm very honored and grateful for the wonderful opportunity. Please be sure to visit the Frilly and Funkie Challenge Blog (click HERE) to see all the beautiful DT samples!
