* Crafts Galore Encore: Christmas Blue Tit

 

 Hello

 Today sees that start of a new challenge at Crafts Galore Encore

The theme is always 'Anything Goes' and you can enter up to 3 different projects The challenge runs all month until mid day (GMT) 30th August.

Fred She Said is very kindly sponsoring this month's challenge.

Here is my project using the lovely Blue Tit digi:



I printed the digi, then cut it using an oval die. The digi is coloured with Copic markers and the background coloured with Distress Oxide inks whilst the die was still in place. This gave it a lovely crisp, white border. I added some water splatters to bleach out some of the background colour and to add a little texture. I also added white Posca paint splatters to replicate snow fall. 
I chose some beautiful vintage colour papers and distress the edges. I added some banner die cuts and made a paper flower cluster along with a tiny tag that says 'joy'.


Many thanks to Fred She Said for supporting the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge.

Please pop over to Crafts Galore Encore to see the DT's wonderful designs. 


We'd love to see your creations.
Remember the challenge is always 'Anything Goes' and so you can create any type of project - it doesn't have to be a card and you can enter up to 3 times.

Thanks for stopping by today!
xoxo
