Challenged by Sam

Hi

i have been set another challenge by my mate Sam, the brief this time was





I was also instructed to use at least 1 die-cut, text/scrip and at least one stamped image.

This is what i made



I painted an mdf cog in little black dress and stencilled some script on it in stone, i used one of Lin Browns Ecclectica 3 die cut flowers, stamped a Lynne Perrella image on the face and coloured the stem with some postbox Dylusions spray, i then stamped over the stem with the Finnabair chequerboard stamp in black archival. I found some metal butterflied in my stash and painted one in snowflake, i liked the idea of stamping a butterfly onto a butterfly if that makes any sense? it didn't quite fit but i actually don't mind that too much.

Looking forward to Sam's creation!!

  6. You've created a fab project with the challenge brief Emma. Glad to see you made quick use of the checkerboard stamp ;-). It looks great on the red stem and btw using that colour for the stem is quite inspired I think as is the butterfly on a butterfly. Excellent project altogether!
