I was thrilled to bits when Georgia asked me to be Guest Designer at Crafty Calender this month and what a fabulous theme it is - The Great Outdoors. The DT's have come up with some amazing creations - just check them out.
I just loved doing this card - once I'd got my masking in the right order that is - using two images I don't have a problem - three and I always manage to get one the wrong way round. Poor Edwin was impaled on the fence at one point - I quickly rescued him and he's fortunately no worse for wear.
The patterned bp is from my 'bit box' (I have some rather large pieces in my bit box) and the ribbon is pure silk tie-died and very touchy-feely. I used a MS punch for the large butterfly, the smaller one is a stamp (origin unknown) which I cut out and the pearls are Basic Grey.
Right, back to painting radiators, much rather be painting images!!

ReplyDeleteyour card is delish hun, fabulous colouring and such pretty detail... and your not on your own when it comes to masking more than two images, i am the same... hehe.xx
Oh isn't this gorgeous! I haven't got my head around masking so I'm not sure how badly Edwin suffered here, but he's looking pretty well! I love the pp.
