DT 195 - Birthday Wishes

 Welcome to Double Trouble Challenge 195!

The small graphic is below - please visit the Double Trouble Challenge Blog for detailed information. 

My 3-2-1 recipe is as follows: 3 colours (plus a few more), 2 hand stamped images (5 in total) and 1 sentiment. I also splattered the background with gold paint to meet Thing 3's requirement. 

I used the sketch from Try a Sketch on Tuesday. I cannot link up this card for that challenge (back linking) but the sketch is provided for your inspiration. 

The background was created by using Lindy's Magical Powders. They are shimmery on their own but I also splattered gold paint on the finished design. The images were stamped, coloured and die cut. They were somewhat lost on the background so I placed each of them on a vellum circle as per the sketch. The sentiment was added just under one of the flowers. I used a clear shimmer brush on parts of the images. 


Come and join us at Double Trouble and show us how you interpret this challenge. 

You have two weeks to link up your project. 

We can't wait to see what you create!

Enjoy, 

Alyson
