Better late than never pretty much sums ups this week. Good intentions an all that as I was ready to kick back and relax for some very much needed summer hols and get very very inky admist watching the Olympic coverage on tv ... but let's just say life has a habit of throwing a spanner in the works!! This is a project I made earlier in the week for this weeks theme at Simon Says Stamp & Show ...
The theme is "What do you say" .... encouraging us to use sentiments in some way. The quote I have used in my project has meant a lot to me this week what with one thing and another.
The wooden shadow boxes have been painted with Fresco Paints (Butternut,French Roast & Nougat), the flowers, vase and background mesh were inked using Distress Inks (Peacock Feathers). The stamps are from Studio 490 (Art from the Heart, Accents for Art, The Essence of Art, It's More Flower Art & Well Worn Art). The words are Tim Holtz Ideaology Chit Chat. I have used Alcohol Inks to colour the Ideaology Foundations Feet (aka LB style).
Righty ho it's back to cheering on #TeamGB for me .... I'm addicted to these games, have a lovely weekend everyone. TFL xx
