Happy Friday!
Yes the weekend is nearly here again, but before I start waving the flags and doing cartwheels, let me show you a project.
I have a box, very full box, of half finished projects and bits of leftovers, Linda Page will freak if she she's it! Soo, I thought id start a new little feature on bloggy called...Finish it Friday. So whatever I post on a Friday must use up something unfinished.
This one is using up a couple of bits, I had a few too many leaves I stamped and cut from painty background, actually they are trees but I thought they look like leaves if I use them that way. I also had an inky background on Gelli card that was too bright, so I dulled it with white paint then stamped a few stamps in distress ink, distress ink faded on top of paint which gives a nice muted look.
I decided to leave the heart blank for now because I don't know what I'll use this for yet.
Hope you like it!
Thanks for stopping by, enjoy the weekend. It's a busy one for me, Saturday is Shrewsbury class, Sunday I've volunteered to help at a fun day at Animal Care in Lancaster, that's where I adopted miss Tilly from.

ReplyDeleteOoo Maria that's fab-u-lous! You best hide your box of incomplete stuff before Linda sees it! Xxx
ReplyDeletesuch a lovely project from 'bits'. that is upcycling xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea, lovely artwork xx
ReplyDeleteLovely way to use up and finish things. I now have an ever expanding pile of backgrounds to use, but I have used three today and just have to mount them when I get home. However, I do have several class projects that Jesus st need putting together, so that had better be my job for next Friday. xxx Maggie
ReplyDeleteI think finish it Friday is a great idea Maria. This one is beautiful. I have a box of unfinished projects too, and since moving all my stash into our new conservatory, am trying to finish cards that I'd forgotten I ever started!!! Xxx
