Pink and Turquoise creation for Simon Says Anything Goes!


I pushed my boundaries with this creation! Over at Simon Says Stamp and show it is anything goes and boy did I have fun with this one!

I just love the soft creations over at Tracey's blog Running with Scissors but it is SO VERY out of my comfort zone to work with pastel colours and pinks. So I set out on a mission today to push every limit I have with flowers and the like!


I was inspired by Tracey's Journal page that she covered with book pages and painted and inked on top of. So I decided to try the same on an old picture block I had. Of course my latest Tim Flourish stamp set got used too, in fact it was my starting point and I worked the pages round them. The rest is a case of trial and error, the cupcakes have been various colours on route to brown and you could almost do an archaeological dig through all the layers!

    Hi Bella, this is such a pretty piece, I too avoid soft/pastel colours but you have rocked this one, very shabby chic. x
