Hi Everyone, sorry I seem to be behind with catching up with all your blogs, but things have been rather hectic since coming back from our holidays, I promise to catch up soon. Can you believe we
are at the end of August already. In Scotland the nights are starting to get
darker earlier in the evening and my beloved little Robin has re-appeared back in my
garden. All signs summer time is about to end and the clocks will go back soon
and winter will be upon us. So this is where my inspiration for my Cheery Lynn DT card this week came from.
My card is 8x8 in size and fits the Mega Doily Die
perfectly. With this die cut I used patterned paper, dry brushed on some Gesso
and inked the edges to give a shabby feel. My Clock, Victorian flourishes and
corner dies were cut out in a lilac shade of paper. I stamped a crackle stamp
onto the clock and corners and then inked the edges on all these die parts and
once again dry brushed some Gesso on.
I added some glitter glue onto my clock face and little
diamantés.
My flowers all started off as white cardstock. They were
cut out and I added different shades of ink, a little stamping onto the Shasta
Daisy for texture and a little flower soft into the centres. My leaves were cut
from green card stock and the edges inked.
My butterflies were cut out in pink patterned paper and I
used the angel wing to cut out the back of the butterflies in white cardstock,
again inking the edges.
Thanks for stopping by today I always appreciate your visits and comments.
