This gorgeous image is one of
the freebies included in round 6 which is the final round of Series 1 of the Progressive
Challenge at the CDAC.
This image is Candles
and is by Daisy Doodles and as a
member of both the CDAC and Daisy DT’s I just had to have a play with it didn’t
I?
***************************************
I coloured my image in with
Promarkers and Flexmarkers and added a second
layer of the holly and berries mounted
onto 3d foam. The circle behind the image is embossed card from Craftwork Cards
which has been inked with Distress inks and a duster brush to produce a glow
around the candles. I have added Stickles glitter glue all around the edge of
this section.
The scalloped edge card has a
layer of green card from my scraps box and on top of this is a gorgeous
glittered cardstock from the Dovecraft First Edition Pad Christmas Joy. Every
single holly leaf is glittered and it’s just a bit gorgeous J
For a finishing touch I added
some Crystal effects to the berries and veins on the leaves and the decorations
on the candles for an extra shine. I felt a sentiment would spoil the
cleanliness of the card so left one off.
***************************************
If you took part in round 5 of
the CDAC Progressive
Challenge you will have received your
fabulous images. You still have over 24 hours to enter the challenges and if
you missed out on the last challenge you can buy yourself back in for only $1
