To Comfort You

Photo Details

Poster: ladybug91743

todays challenge was to use shading, to have one colour graduate into another....I immediately thought of brayering...

After brayering my paper, I sponged the edges, then stamped image and sentiment... I stamped dragonflies, cut them out, added stickles and pearls, then put them on dimensionals. Finished off card with ribbon and brads...

thanks for taking a peek... hope you like it....
