Lillybet's Papers

In my last class we made a Gate Fold using the Layering Leaves set. It's such a nice fold I had fun creating a few more samples using up some of the elements from my "useful box"  (thanks to Playschool I have always had a useful box, although  there are no cereal cartons or egg cartons are in mine these days!) Some time ago I heat embossed the flower in gold onto watercolour paper and painted it with Poppy Parade and Petal Pink, it was in the box and was the starting point for this creation. this sample uses the beautiful Irresistible Blooms  bundle I love the Dry Brushed Metallic DSP for decorating and die cutting You can see the original post and the measurements I used here.

Gosh it's been ages since I had time to create, but with NEW colours who can resist.

I had fun creating with Boho Blue      Moody Mauve      Pebbled Path      Copper Clay &      Wild Wheat. here they all are together I watercoloured a panel of Fluid 100 watercolour paper using 4 of the colours, and then had fun playing with the gold gilding flakes to add some sparkle. Then I  mounted it all on vanilla and finally Pebbled Path, which I think is my new go-to base card colour. The vanilla details are from Irresistible Blooms and the fern of course is from Nature's Prints .  You can find all of these in my Online Store This weeks inspiration photo this week is from   https://www.pinterest.com.au/pin/823595850601253336/ what a fabulous pair of boots! ...
