This is my take on the first challenge for the "new"
123 challenge blog. The criteria this month......colour:black, word:year and technique:twine circles. I had loads of fun creating the background starting with kraft cardstock which I painted grey first then added blackened texture paste with a plastic card to create the flower outline and other blobs. Just kept adding - washi, hesian,stamping, misting, dry brushing and of course twine circles......around the flower's centre and again a small circle in the centre and the leaves and under the photo. tfl
Hi Deb.. wow I never would have thought that the card stock was kraft! What a lot of fun you have had.. The hessian flower is divine, love the twine circles, and that photo looks like it is at seaworld which is a great place to spend a day!
