Well, that was a busy weekend! Today I'll be catching up on post and doing some final prep for tomorrow night's One Day Special on Hochanda.
Here's today's sneak peek -
I matted onto Black Card and popped onto Coconut White Card.
I stamped the Woodware Tractor onto Watercolour Card using Black Onyx Versafine Ink. I coloured in using CS Essentials Watercolour Palette and a Water Brush. I added a little Graphmaster BG1 Alcohol Marker around the edges of the windows. I cut it out using scissors leaving a small white border.
I stamped a sentiment onto Coconut White Card using Versafine Ink. I cut it out using Sue Wilson's Pierced Flags.
I stamped another sentiment onto Coconut White Card. I cut it out using Sue Wilson's Double Pierced Squares Set B.
I painted some Cogs Pop-ems with the 3 paints I used for the background. I used various thicknesses of the Lustre Paints which, when heated to dry, give different textures. I added them to my card using CS Glue.
The winner of the card from Freebie Friday on 5th May is ..........................
Jackie Trinder

Hi Julia. My 4 year old grandson would love this card, he is tractor mad. Love your background on this one too. SueL x
ReplyDeleteI know a man older than me who would love this as a birthday card as he is totally in to tractors. If he could he would have them in the garden but his landlady would never agree to it. Great card by the way!
