The joy of creating

Welcome to my post and my blog, stay around and peek into some of my past posts, If you see something you like, please leave me a comment so I know you've stopped in.

I've been pretty busy with DT work and work in general and finally things are starting to settle down to quiet chaos and I found some time to make up this Saturated Canary image 'Glinda'  She's been coloured with copics and will be used to say a sad farewell to one of my staff at the end of this week.

 Here is a close up of 'Glinda' with the gorgeous Wild Orchid flowers, there are a a couple of other flowers in the mix but I don't know the manufacturer as I picked them up from a haberdashery store and they had no tags.  I'm becoming addicted to these Wild Orchid Flowers, OH MY, I've had two huge orders in the past couple of months their prices are amazing and the parcel arrived from England to Australia super quick.  I think I now have somewhere around 1,500 - 2,500 flowers, that should keep me busy, Oh they are tiny so they don't take up that much space!

The papers are from a Papermania stack all blues, SU card stock in Bashful Blue and Marina Mist.  Pale blue glitter on the peaks of the Nesti border.  This was split diagonally in half then placed around the image and the gaps covered by the flower sprays!  The sentiment is SU and it's layered on my new Whimsy label die which is totally gorgeous.

Friday Mashup Challenge

Hi there blends and visitors.  The challenge this week is bought to you by Rita.

So here is the "Mashup" Challenge :

1. Make a project using the " Sketch ".
2. Or Make a project using the " Ghosting (aka VersaMark Resist) Technique".
3. Or "Mash it Up" and create a project using the " Sketch & the Ghosting Technique". 

 I chose to make a tag on my card using this fabulous Sweet Pea image Opalite by Rachel Anderson.  There is lots of sand and gold spica used on this image and she sparkles and shines.

I did some dry embossing and matted the layers with Calypso Coral to pick up that lovely soft orange in her dress and wings.  Unfortunately I didn't write down all the colours I've used.  Sorry!

The Friday Mashup design team has lots of lovely inspiration for you so head on over to our blog and check it all out!

This card is also being entered into the following challenges.
