I chose her 3rd project and created something completely different. Going through her post, at the point where she finished her background I thought : Oriental card!
I didn't have the same stencils (pity), but used what I had to sort of create the background, and add the Lynne Perrella stamp to complete the Oriental look.
I used Grunge Paste through Mini Vine and Mini Birds of a Feather stencils.
The background is painted with Fresco Paints in Inky Pool, Eggplant and Baltic Blue (with a touch of Nougat to lighten bits and for the moon)
I have used Treasure Gold - Brass to highlight the raised areas.

Goreous, I especially love the softness of the moon. Creates such feeling about the whole piece.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful! I love the effect of the moon and the gold ties it all together and accentuates it. Ddefinitely right for an Oriental theme!
ReplyDeleteLoving the streaky blues with the moon in the BG. Could use that technique for many different things!
