Skissedilla

I stumbled on this blog a few weeks ago (thanks to Louise Nelson...thanks Lou!), but have only just had a chance to give one of their sketches a go....

Sketch # 168




And here is my take on it....



Using some REALLY old 7 Gypsies paper that has been in my stash for about 8 years or so!!!  lol
I've also used a CW template & some Gesso mixed with Mocha paint to create the background...then I've randomly sprayed a few different glimmermists as well.




A close up of my cluster that features a Lil' Red Rocket spotty button :) .....some Prima & Manorhouse flowers...Tim Holtz film strip ribbon & DA chipboard that I have painted in Pistachio coloured paint.




My journaling & more film strip ribbon, chipboard, Prima flower & D'Lish Scraps wooden butterfly button.




My title & a bit of a close up of the Gesso/template work




Pic is from our trip to Tassie....of some old farm equipment at an old Homestead called "Highfield" near Stanley, which I loved!


Thanks for dropping by!  xx
