Eighteenth birthday

   The theme for this fortnight's challenge at Send A Smile 4 Kids is anything goes with the twist for teens. This image which I decoupaged is taken from Hunkydory's  Square Little Book of Milestone Birthdays. I matted and layered it onto silver mirri, dark blue card and white card.

Old car

    Another challenge starts today at QKR Stampede and I thought that I would try a new technique - stencilling.
    The stencil from Sheena Douglass  was used to create the background to the digi image (called old car). I used Distress Inks for this and Promarkers for the digi. The sentiment was cut from both white and black card using a Tattered Lace ornamental best wishes die.
