Doily Romance!

Hello!
I'm still using the fabulous Doily die for this weeks project for Creative Expressions.... this time showing off all the intricate detail rather than covering it in paint!
(OK...so paint WAS involved, just not lots for a change!!)
I cut the doily from Kraft card, then did a little gentle sponging with cream and blue Eco Green paint....
A tiny bit of black splatter stamping just for a little detail, then I adhered the doily to the centre of a Kraft panel that had been painted, distressed and splatted too! I only used the glue in the centre, as I wanted the edges of the doily to lift and be a little more 3D.
The finishing touch was my wooden heart embellishment....
Sponged with the same paint, stamped and then covered with clear rock candy crackle paint. A Chit Chat sticker completes the look!
I matted up the Kraft panel onto a blue card blank, just to echo the blue paint already used.
Yes I know...I made a card!!!! How very strange!
Next week I'm starting with the texture paste that was part of my DT package...LOVE the stuff!

    Lovely Trish, the heart is a great complimentary addition to the wonderfully ornate doily. Tracy x x

    I'm not very good at seeing 'what it is yet'? So thought it was a canvas??
    Absolutely stunning colour palette & love your heart. As to that doily - WOW!! :))

    So gorgeous, Trish - the doily looks amazing as does the little crackly heart, and I love the colour palette.
