This weeks CMLI sketchie was set by GDT Nicola and the theme was no backing papers. I decided to make my own backing for a change by stamping this checked pattern in orange and then ditressing round the edge of the card in yellow. I don't have distress inks and so I had to get creative and used water colour paints! While I had them out I decided to colour the image in water colours for a change too. It is not the best card I have ever made, but I had fun doing it and it is a little bit different to my norm.
It may be a change from your norm but it's very cute Louise

ReplyDeletelouise, great to see you trying out some new techniques and the finished card looks fab!
ReplyDeleteIt's always good to stray from the norm every now and again. The bright yellow has certainly put a smile on my face. I love the water coloured image, I bought myself some which I'm dying to try some time!
