PaperArtsy Challenge : Dark to Light and Contrasts

The latest challenge at PaperArtsy is Dark to Light and Contrasts.
I am in a lot of pain at the moment, so not able to do much, but I really wanted to join in. So I decided to do a simple card, similar to the one I submitted for the Aqua challenge.

The background is painted with Fresco Acrylic Paint (Eggplant), and I used Lilac on a stamp from EEV02 for the scratchy squares background.
The stencils in the foreground are done in Snowflake and Lilac (just in the centre of the flowers), and I used 008 PA Stencil (JOFY) and 003 PA Stencil (Lin Brown)

PaperArtsy Challenge : Aqua

It's been a while since I last posted!
The current PaperArtsy challemge is Aqua.
My card is inspired by a card Jo Firth-Young made back in 2015 (I save all the posts with pictures I like as inspiration, then just scroll through when I am not sure what I feel like making).

The background is created using Fresco Acrylic Paints, the background stamp is from EEV02, the Stencil is 011 PA Stenceil (JOFY) and the words are from ELB22.
