The Paper Players Sketch Challenge

I started by using sprays and brusho's to make a background.

I use a large empty box for this, messy and fun!

I just love Lindy's sprays as they add sparkle.

I die cut circles out of the background and used a Sweet Poppy stencil 

and Prima Modelling Paste coloured with black acrylic paint for the thistles.

I stamped a Designs by Ryn leaf stamp 

and hi-lighted it with Glossy Accents and Mica Paint,

which looked lovely against the colours of the background blending.

The sentiment stamp is by IndigoBlu.

I die cut another two circles and used Gold Embossing Paste 

for the inside of the card to back the circles on the front.

The elements have been framed in black card and layered onto foam.

Loving the challenge of the sketch and the Designs by Ryn Leaf Stamp.
