Paper Artsy and Paint


Hello to you all, I have been messing with Fresco paints and a brayer for this share.
Over on the Paper Artsy blog I was inspired by Lynne Moncrieff and her subtle background and use of flowers and mixing paints to get other colours.

 My background was actually made with a brayer after watching a video by Leandra of PaperArtsy and I loved the technique ....I used this background for my card and I used JOFY 24 stamp set for my images. I coloured them in with more Fresco paints and added a sentiment. I hope you like it.xxx
