I decided to decorate a piece of MDF that I bought when last down at Indigoblu headquarters. I used lime-marmalade paint as the base coat and decorated after that using stamps from the following sets....live-laugh-love-a5-red-rubber-stamp
wild-meadow-a5-red-rubber-stamp
plus luscious-pigment-powders-green.
Here's what I did...
I gave the whole piece a coating of the lime marmalade paint. Once dry I stamped the leaves then mixed up the green luscious with water and painted the leaves. Next I stamped some of the flowers out on card, coloured and fussycut them. I did the same with the butterflies and dragon flies.
Then I had the fun of sticking the extra bits on - oh and diecuttting the words too.
I have this hanging in my hall - I love it! Such a blast of spring colour!!!
Hope you have a good day - whatever you're up to!
Hugs
