I used some of the paper daisies to pop into the acetate jar that you've seen me make before (click on Perfectly Preserved in my side bar index to see how carried away I've been with this beautiful jar!) I arranged the jar on a piece of 'wood' made with core'dinations card stock run through the Big Shot with the wonderful Woodgrain embossing folder and sanded back to reveal the lighter colour inside the card stock. The background was spritzed using a Summer Starfruit marker tucked into the Colour Spritzer Tool.

We had soup for lunch yesterday, which I served with crusty granary bread and little bowls of sliced salad vegetables, and I guess I'm not the only one in our family with a crafty streak...
Voila! My youngest son's radish and cucumber sculpture!
I'll be back tomorrow - perhaps with a Christmas card... after all, I'll be needing to actually send some of them in the post in 45 days!
Oh so cute and pretty! Love the wood grain and those big, bold flowers!

Beautiful card, Vicky! I love the simplicity of it. Your son's sculpture made me smile - a healthy mini version of scooby doo's burgers!
ReplyDeleteHiya Vicky, that little jar is certainly working for it's living, you come up with so many ideas for it and All wonderful. Love the wood backing to this too.
ReplyDeleteLove the sculpture !!!!! I am amazed at how crafty you are, you must be the most versatile person i know. This is so pretty and the spritzing is an amazing touch.

Hi Vicky. Love the rustic natural look to your card.
ReplyDeletePer your comment on my post, If you can get Hubby to agree, I can highly recommend the Glasshouse in Edinburgh and yes you do need to sit down re price but we were lucky to be there on an Itison deal! Much more manageable.
