I had so much fun making the background. I used fresco paints and layered them up with a brayer. Sherbet and candy floss and tangerine twist and tango plus prawn were the paints used. I also used snowflake paint and one of the new stencils.
The stencilling shows up nicely here - there are some elenazinski stamps in here too...
More stencilling ....
these characters are such fun!
I was inspired particularly by the post pocket-letters-by-wendy-mallas in making this - although of course mine is a journal page rather than ATCs!
I'd like to enter the paperartsy blog -topic-1-pink-and-orange-challenge.
