Happy Monday
I created this for a few challenges. I am late in honouring Queen TrishG. Here is the sweet card that inspired me. But for some reason my card turned out quite different than I had imagined. Here is Trish's card Cute critter with twin
I started with making the mottled background - used an acrylic block, cut out the pink mesh and taped it to the block. Used yellow and caramel coloured acrylic paints. Painted the mesh first with the yellow and stamped on the white paper. Let dry and painted mesh with caramel ink and stamped. Matted the painted panel with caramel. Added the caramel center strip.
Image was already coloured in my stash Assembled image panel. Doodled on the caramel cardstock with copic marker. Stapled on the image and sentiment. Attached the twine. cut out the apples and adherred. Added the lettered dp. Popped up image panel.
This works for the Free 4 all challenge F4A237 - apple
Thanks for looking,
Hugs..Pat
