Koi Pond

Morning and I have four DT posts today and completely forgot the order I scheduled so this one could be anything from 1 to 4 and is for the ATG challenge at Crafting With Friends and we are sponsored by Sparkle'N'Sprinkle.I used the images Koi Pond Beauty I used all PRE-COLOURED images.

Now this project was a combined effort as Holly youngest grandaughter was sick at school and I was summoned to pick up asap lol-after a miraculous recovery she took over I was instructed to cut out all the image-yer thanks Holly!I added the glossy accents and we found a pre-made background on my desk made with smooched oxides on black card and stamped leaves with hollographic EP which didn't work so hence a background.
Holly then place everything where it was to be stuck down.
It was then stuck down with silicone gel onto a canvas which had Aztec Lustre paint wiped on not enough to please Holly though!then put into a distressed frame.
