In My Garden at TioT


Hello, it's time to tell you about the new challenge at Try it on Tuesday and for this fortnight it's   'In My Garden'  

I decided to use my new Paper Artsy Kay Carley stamps.  I stamped with Black Archival and heat set with Clear EP,  I also stamped a couple of masks on post-it notes so I could layer the flowers.  Leaving the masks in place, I coloured the background with Distress Inks in Tumbled Glass and Broken China and then sprinkled on PA Infusions In the Navy.  Unfortunately a little of the Infusions sneaked under the mask, but after colouring the flowers, it didn't really spoil.  The sentiment is from a Jofy set.

It would be lovely to see what's in your garden, so why not join in.  The rest of the DT have some great inspiration for you, so please pop over to the main blog, where you'll also find all the details.

Thanks for calling in,
Avril xx

Lovely card Avril, the flower stamp is so pretty. Haven't tried the infusions yet, trying to be good and not buy anymore craft stuff.

Delightful and such a pretty colour too. Off to see what these infusions are all about. I seem to be missing a trick here methinks! Hugs Mrs A.

Lovely card and sentiment! The flowers are so pretty with the microbeads centres and the infusions looks like fragrance floating out of the flowers - beautiful 😁. Happy Wednesday! J 😊
