Allsorts Challenge # 849

 The theme for this Allsorts Challenge has been chosen by Liz who would like to see some monochrome projects (shades of one colour) or there is the usual 'anything goes' option.  The prize is a stencil and stamps from Creative Expressions - full details on the Allsorts post.

For my Design Team card this time I've I've made a DL card in shades of  lilac starting with some smooshed ink down the centre of the background and then stamping to add some visual texture.  I then cut a panel for the main image of cone flowers in a loose watercolour technique.  Final addition was a die cut sentiment to tone.


Background - unbranded stamp from Amazon
Main Image - Cone Flowers from Paper Artsy, designed by Alison Bomber
Sentiment - dies also unbranded from Amazon

There's an exciting challenge coming up for the fortnight after this because it's our 17th Birthday with lots of prizes, so something to look forward to.  Hope you will come along to help us celebrate.
