RSS Challenge


This week the challenge over on RSS is to use Green (my cardstock), Butterflies (I painted mine with Twinkling H2o's), Flowers (my background ones are from a Non Sequitur plate and my rose is unknown), PVA Resist Technique (my rose was painted using PVA and Stewart Gill True Colours which I mixed to get the orange shades), Buttons (found these tiny orangey ones in my stash) and, finally, Lace (I aged my lace with Antique Linen Distress Ink).

I got the "Post Card" stamp last weekend (Crafty Individuals) so that came in handy for this challenge and the writing I have had for ages - again unmounted and I do not know who it is by.

The lady is being used again because I just love her and her dress is a very pale lilac and her face is painted with Natural Linen (Twinkling H20's). The postcard which I made up from the two stamps is aged with Antique Linen and then I have torn it and turned some torn bits down so it looks kind of crumpled. You will notice I have used one of the Nestabilities again to frame her face - quite like these.

I hope this is in time for the challenge.
