It was
my turn to choose and image for Choccy and myself to use and in celebration
of Spring it just had to be daffodils. I really do like the floral images that Floppy
Latte does and this Floral
Frame 7 is a fabulous example of her attention to detail that makes her
floral designs so realist and a pleasure to work with.
I selected a word art
from Diana at All About Me.
She is so very generous with her digi kits and offers many word arts for free.
This one is from Pink Spring and is available here.
I coloured the image in Promarkers and Flexmarkers and cut it out using my
super sharp Fiskars embroidery scissors. The blades are so precise and
completely necessary for such detailed designs as this.
I used a sketch from Sketchy
Challenges for the layout. The base designer paper is from Basic Grey. The
doily is a die cut which has been inked with a brown distress pad to knock the
edges back. The orange strip has been trimmed with a Martha Stewart punch.
Finally a gold glittery butterfly has been added which was a purchase from
Hobbycraft a good 3 years ago.
