Happy Easter

Hello Lovelies! I hope you've had a good good Friday! Happy Easter to you all and thanks for comments on yesterdays journal page - I've got another one brewing at present but thats another days story.

Today I want to share with you my make for the chocolate baroque colour challenge. Here is the colour chart:

Current Challenge

Beautiful colours that really put a frosty morning into my mind - but why I then reached for some flowers I don't know!!! Anyhoo - here's what I made:



I stamped the floral images first masking the spiny one before stamping the other two and masking all before stamping the foliage. Then I added the butterfly - all stamping was done in versa and then I added silver wow powders before heat setting. Finally I masked off the moon then made the background before painting over the flowers with distress inks.



I used a chocolate baroque sentiment too.



Finally here is a close up of the flowers.

I would like to enter this into chocolatebaroquechallenge-nine

I hope you have a good evening - I am heading into the attic for a play!!! But before I go here are some more pictures from our London trip - these are all from our London Eye visit!






Big Hugs
