Sunflowers

Hello and welcome back to another TTCRD anything goes challenge. This week we are sponsored by Sheepski designs and she is offering 3 images from her shop. I do love working with her images. They are very versatile.

I chose to work with a sunflower image that you can find here. I love sunflowers as I think they are such happy flowers. So all I did is printed them out and coloured them with Faber Castell polychromos pencils and added some white highlights.

For the background, I used a piece of Gelli print that was left over from another card and then stamped the word background with a Simon Says Stamp stamp. I used archival inks for stamping. Where the two joined I added a very thin strip of antique gold card. Some gems finished off the card.

So now it is over to you. See you on the other side, hugs Theresa xx.

bloom canvas

Hello there my friends. It is time for another TTCRD anything goes challenge. This week we are sponsored by Newton's Nook and I chose to work with one of their freebies called bloom.

I started by adding modelling paste through stencils and allowing it to dry. Then I painted the surface using watered down Deco Art acrylic paints and sprinkling with table salt. Once dry I removed the salt and mod podged the flowers onto the surface.

For the flowers, I printed the image several times in different sizes. Then I coloured them in with the deco art acrylics and then stamped over with a Simon says Stamp background stamp.

Finally, I added details with a black sharpie and a white posca pen. The black washi tape is made from masking tape painted black and stamped over with white.

So now it is over to you. Join us at TTCRD for a chance to win some goodies. See you on the other side, hugs Theresa xx
