Hi everyone, on BasicGrey Challenge this week we're asked to 'mix it up'."Mix and match from different BasicGrey collections in your creation, it can be as many collections as you wish but no less than 2, for egHope you can join in this week and pop over to the blog where there are fantastic creations from my team mates for inspiration.
Blush + Sugared
Infuse + Wassail + Boxer"
I've used papers from the Granola, Boxer and Ambrosia collections, a Boxer brad and fibres for my card this week. The image is my own peacock feather sketch which is marker coloured and decorated with stickles. The layout is loosely following a previous Mojo Monday sketch but I made a distressed circle element with a brad centre from nestabilities cut circles instead of a square. The paper edges are distressed and glittered and the fibres are wound around the bottom panel and tied off at the side of the image. I added some gems, more stickles and a bit of sponging around the image to finish. TFL. Chris
