Gabrielle's second make

Phew! Your gorgeous makes keep on coming, thank you! If you haven't entered a piece yet or are looking for ideas or creativity then why not have a look at Gabrielle's second make for some...




"I took the idea I had from my first project and decided to make a complimentary plaque so I could display them together. So I used the same stamps and PaperArtsy paints but added some Grunge Paste through a stencil to change the background a little. The two layered flowers were made by painting grungepaper with a little Butternut paint first before stamping the flowers with more white and blue paint. The sentiment was a little too long for my little plaque so I cut it so it says 'Secret Garden'."

Thanks Gabrielle, another beautiful piece of art to get us motivated!

Well, it's over to you now - if you haven't entered something yet time is marching on, we're two thirds the way through the challenge.

In a few days we'll be featuring Brenda's second piece so do be sure to come back and see us.

Have a great week! xxx
