It is time for a new challenge at City Crafter Challenge Blog and our host is Stella who would like to see a project in blue and green with a splash of red.
Here is the gorgeous inspiration photo:
And here is my card:
I went with mixed media style...
Alot of gesso and distress paints...
...and layer upon layer of embellishments...
Everything was layered on the home made canvas using a piece of a cardboard...
Our guest this week is Liz Carvill. Please check out her fabulous work and also the fabulous makes of my team mates. I hope you'll join the fun at CCCB this week :)
Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by...

DeleteJust stunning Samra!! I love your layers upon layers of embellishments, I see something new every time I scroll back up! I love how you used splashes of colour here and there, and those little red gems just pop off your canvas! What a yummy take on the inspiration photo, I really love your mixed media interpretation! Gorgeous as always my friend! hugs :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much my dear :)
DeleteHow captivating! I love the inspiration photo, but seeing your take gives it a whole new life. I really like your hombre color fade from darker to light and then a neutral to divide and then begin the next color and your focus of highlight reds were perfectly placed. What a beautiful piece of art you've designed here Samra.
