PaperArtsy Challenge : Ellen Vargo Abstract Cards

I'm loving the Abstract Art Ellen Vargo is doing over at PaperArtsy this week. This time she made a large abstract sheet, and then cut it into 4 cards. I have done similar.


It was great fun to make (rather messy, which is half the fun!)
The Fresco Paints was brayered onto the card (Snowflake, Limelight, Pumpkin Soup, Smoked Paprika, Inky Pool and London Bus)
I used the end of a glue stick dipped in Snowflake to make the circles. Smoke Paprika and Mini Harlequin stencil, the stamps are from Hot Pick 1006, Hot Pick 1008, Hot Pick 1009, Hot Pick 1208, JoFY Collection 14 and Lin Brown 01
