C. of C week 16


Week 16 for the Compendium of Curiosities challenge, over at Linda's StudioL3 is on Page 33-Wrinkle Free Distress. First reading it, I thought that it seemed quite straight forward, but phew I have lost count on the number of times I attempted this. None will be wasted I hasten to add.

The colours I used for this piece were forest moss and barn door

Thankyou for stopping by to take a look.

  11. Oh, this is stunning, MeggyMay! I absolutely love how your wrinkle-free distress turned out, and the colors are GORGEOUS! I love the mix of red, green and gold, and the flourish and poinsettia are so pretty. This is enough to put anyone in the holiday spirit!

    If it's any consolation, I lost count of how many tags I used before I finally got a background I liked for this challenge!
