I have been making a few backgrounds using paste through a stencil and distress paints to create that random background. Thought I would add some embellishments and make this card. My flowers, butterflies and birds are made textured using frosted film and crackle paint.
I would like to submit these to:
Thanks for looking

I'm sitting in the garden looking at this beautifully textured and summer coloured card and it fits beautifully with my surroundings. Love how the paints have blended and marbled in the background and the fabulous use of the film and crackle, it worked magnificently xx

I don't know... I seem to miss stuff all the time, and have just checked my Blogger Dashboard and your posts haven't been coming through. Have re-signed in to your blog in the hopes that it will trigger them to start coming again... fingers crossed, and apologies for anything I've missed (I'm sorrier for me at having missed it!).
