For this challenge I have used this serene image from Gingerloft
Digi Stamps called Rustic
Bench. I can just imagine siting on such a
bench listening to the tweety birds, it looks like a very restful place to be J
I coloured the image with Promarkers and Flexmarkers, added a couple of
small glittered butterfly stickers and cut it out using a Nestabilities die. I
created a mat with a larger die and some dark green paper from a Costco folder. The floral paper is from a First Edition pad
called Boho Chic. I adore the papers in oranges, browns and greens.
I have used some handmade paper string to create a crinkled layer and
made a bow from this and some raffia. The ribbon has been recycled from a box
of chocolates, the raffia from a plant
label has a couple of metal charms tied into it. The sentiment is included in
the download and has been cut into a banner shape and curled up at the edges.
With all the awful weather we have been having lately let’s hope this challenge
heralds a change in the weeks to come J
