TCR - 50th Colour Palette Birthday Celebration
The Colour Room is celebrating it's 50th Colour Palette with a blog hop!! Pop on over and check out the site to start the blog hop and have a chance to win a fabulous prize!! Be prepared to see some amazing talent and stunning creations.
Here is my take on this weeks palette in monochromatic blues. Went through my stash and came up with some old BG & MME pp's, then decided to create some texture with gesso, scrunched fabric, lace, pearl embroidery cotton, buttons & a fab trim from Bo Bunny.
I stamped over the gesso with a Kaiser script stamp. I also used a Kaiser stamp for the leaves on my flower cluster. A few butterflies with one of my fav punches from Martha Stewart to add a little softness. Wasn't sure about this LO when I started, but I really liked how it came out in the end.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving some love :)
