Papertrey March Blog Hop Challenge

For my inspiration I used a skirt from Monsoon. The skirt is on page 45 on the left of the picture in their 2013 lookbook. Be warned: there's lots of pretty clothes in there!

First I waterbrushed JB spice tin onto the watercolour paper followed by broken china and tumbled glass distress inks.
Next I used 1/8" scor-tape twice and 1/4" scor-tape to add silver glitter in strips across the bottom.
The sentiment from Big Birthday Wishes was stamped in onyx black Versamark ink.
Finally the silver sequins were added. (My children have plenty!) It was then adhered with foam squares to an A2 enchanted evening easel folded card base.



I'm hoping the skirt looks good on me! Thanks for any wonderful comments - I'm off to see the other entries.
