And here's my project!
I must confess, I found this very challenging as I'm not a scrapbooker and I don't use printed papers!
Challenges are good for your creative brain, though (I'm told lol!), so I embraced the papers and created this:
A little bit weird and quirky, just like me!
The vintage fork and spoon were embossed with Metallic Pink, Primary Process Blue, Metallic Brass and Copper Pearl powders..
I also used White Ultra High as splatter detail on the background, and to cover the chipboard 'wow'. i wanted a more textured look to the chipboard!
I attached the sppon to the top of the canvas with wire, then tied the bunting to it!
Finally, my quirky lady was paper pieced together from cut out paper shapes, then given a rather fetching hat!
This may be a bit different to a lot of the other art on show today, but I hope you 
like it!

Your next blog to hop to is


Enjoy the hop!
Love,
Trish xxxx

  5. Love it. A fun, quirky piece. So different from the cards that are on the other blogs and it gives you a break from the usual. I hadn't thought about embossing silverware and such. Looks like it works great.
    thanks for sharing a fantastic piece.
