Lots of Layers

Another Sunday, another new challenge at Lovely hAnglar or Sweet Magnolia!  This fortnight we'd like to see Lots of Layers on your creations, please.

I knew what I wanted to do for my DT card, but I struggled to find the right image to go with my layout.  Then I remembered this little hAnglar girl and everything started to fall into place.

I cut a selection of Maja Designs papers with a Go Kreate die and layered them up on a kraft card base after inking with Walnut Stain DI.  To add further layers I used a large doily and a Spellbinders die cut as a mat for the image, which I coloured with DIs.  I added some sparkle to her wings with Stickles.

I didn't go too mad with the embellies, just a Memory Box layered butterfly and some WOC flowers.  The mulberry leaves are from the Ribbon Girl.

On the subject of the Ribbon Girl, they are our kind sponsor for the layers challenge:

Lifelong crafters Mother and Daughter, Mary and Andrea were tired of having to buy full rolls of ribbon and lace when they only needed one metre.  Because they love ribbons and all things pretty, they decided to open their own online shop in 2010 and make small quantities of beautiful products easily available to all crafters. Mary owns the shop and runs it on a day to day basis as well as keeping the website updated while Andrea looks after the social side,  The Ribbon Girl Blog and the Design Team. They specialise in supplying small (or large) quantities of ribbon, twine, gorgeous vintage style lace and seam binding ribbon, tiny pom-pom and ric-rac trim, all sorts of buttons, fancy pins, a multitude of charms, pearl and crystal flourishes, wool felt squares, seasonal and unusual embellishments, mulberry flowers, sticky tape and accessories to card makers, crafters, scrapbookers and cake decorators. They stock only the best quality products and only offer for sale goods that they would personally buy and use themselves.

 

 

I  hope you can join in at LhoSM this fortnight. 

 

Hugs
