Sorry - long time, no post on this little old blog eh? I've been pretty busy over the last few weeks and other commitments have taken priority but I'm now on half-term so have lots of time to play... yay! I wanted to make some little wall hangings for my church bookshop so I used a couple of challenges to get me started - the Play Date colours and Freshly Made sketch...
Now I will admit before I show you my creation that I kinda missed the point on the whole 'clean' idea of the FMS challenge... I got a bit carried away and forgot the point of the challenge I was working on...! Sorry FMS gals! But it doesn't have tearing or distressing (does that still count?) lol!
I make these pieces of wall art using a piece of hard board that comes in a pack of 6 (supposed to be used as an album) - they are only slightly larger than a standard card so really easy to decorate. I used some Lost & Found papers from MME that matched the colour scheme nicely and a new Spellbinders die I recently got for my birthday (Floral Ovals). The sentiment is from a Layers of Colour stamp set I got a while ago (designed by Nina Brackett). I added lace, So Saffron ribbon, a die-cut flower & button with a couple of punched leaves and some pearls.
Here's a close up of the central panel:
Thanks for stopping by!
