...06 March 1982... |
UPDATED.... The photo from my first wedding, taken at Chelsea Suger Refinery, NZ, is of my younger brother (then age 4) and his kindy friend.
They were just gorgeous, and they remind me of the "Holly Hobby" image - LOL - hence why I just had to create 'rustic', 'magic' and 'mystical' with this month's Purple Pumpkin sketch.
I've used Basic Gray pps [Curio range] and edge punched some of the strips of pp. The technique is yet another one I learned from Tina at the retreat we attended in January.
As I didnt have the 'right' colour toadstool [Eye Candy Magic], or buttons [Purple Pumpkin & Spotlight], I splattered them, the K&Co alphas, Bazzill cardstock and other parts of the LO with Tim's Distress Crackle Paint [aged mahogany & picket fence],
I also misted the pp and the cute green dotty Rainbow Splendour tree as well as a smidgin' of pink 'kinder glitz' for sparkle effect.
You might even notice the butterfly is covered in InksSentials Crackle Accents medium to coordinate the 'aged' look.
I am submitting this for ONE challenge...the BOXX fortnightly challenge - use the word first in what ever way you like (FIRST wedding as well as the first letter of Flower, InksSentials Crackle, Rustic, Strips of pp, Tim Holtz)

This is a fab LO. Love the choice of colours and how you've used those border punches. The letters, leaves, toadstoll and butterfly look superb. Thanks for playing at Southern Girls and good luck.
