More texture at Countryview Crafts

Good morning all! I have my second piece for countryviewchallenges this month to share with you today. The theme is to use texture and this time I have used diecuts from Tim Holtz and also some words and bits and bobs to make a scrapbook page. I used a photo from my run on sep 13th from Newcastle to Gateshead.


I used the following distress inks to create the background first - mustard seed, ripe persimmon, picked raspberry. I used this in conjunction with sizzix-thinlits-die-set--mixed-media that i had used to cut shapes and then used the shapes as a layering stencil - if that makes sense?  I then added the photo and more diecuts -scribbles--splat-by-tim-holtz and -adventure-words-block-by-tim-holtz.


Some close ups ...


Just to let you know we raised over £2000. Brilliant!!!!

I hope you can join us at countryviewchallenges this month!

Hugs
