Astrantia and A Man!

 Morning and time for the mid post inspiration for Stamping Sensation ATG/Mood board challenge and we are sponsored by AALL&Create. I went with Garnet and AALL&Create stamp sets Astrantia and Textured Florals.

I used the fabulous P.paper Watercolour Painted Flowers from ScrapAndMe and stamped the Astrantia straight onto the P.paper and coloured with promarkers, added some doodling and texture stamp from Creative Expressions,found another ring can pull and a slhouette man in the pot so he went on too ,the sentiment was from the botom of a P.paper pad and after some advice from Helen it went on at a wonky angle lol.

 

 Any challenges with digi image prizes I amjust playing for fun/and support as no printer!

  18. Wow! Carol, this is so breathtaking! I love the mix of stamps and these great colorful flowers. They really look fantastic. I think your doodles and texture stamps just complete the card. This silhouette man surpasses everything. He is so well placed. And that canned ring – you really have the ability to create something special. I'm excited.
    Thank you for sharing this special Everybody Art Challenge card.
