Well I can dream! It's been freezing hasn't it. We had hailstones yesterday. I really hope it warms up soon as my Sister has come over from the US for a holiday and last year it rained for nearly all of her stay and it doesn't look very promising this visit either.
I used the new Elizabeth Bennett indigo blu stamp for the focus of my canvas and like most things it ended up completely different from my initial idea!
I used various colours of matt emulsion and randomly painted and sponged onto the canvas and blended then I used a crafters workshop swirl template and sponged through paperartsy fresco finish in hey pesto. I added some texture with a couple of crafty individuals masks and TCW daisy cluster template.
Thank you for all your lovely comments, they are such a pleasure to read. I hope you all stay warm and manage a spot of crafting.
I am entering this for the following challenges
Take care and Happy Crafting XXX
