The image, coloured with water colours and Tombow markers, is from The Stamping Boutique and I am entering it into their September Challenge for a chance to win more of their designs. I find water colours are a good medium when a background needs to be filled in, as the colours blend so well. Cut with a Nestibilities die then inked in brown, add a few more layers including one in red metallic and the image is done. Oh yes, and attached with metal brads.
The papers, I have had forever, and the stripes and dots allows me to enter a couple of different challenges. The blues and green, separated by a purple, brings to mind a skyline at dusk. The little white flowers are rub-ons, and added to the dots resemble stars.
I am also entering this card into the following challenges:
Fab'n'Funky Challenges - #39 What'eva'
Crafty Creations - #84 Transportation
Digital Tuesday - #7 Dots and Stripes
Stamp Something - Something with Spots and Stripes
Crafty Sentiments - #34 Use a digi
