Hello, it's a special time - there are 5 Wednesdays in the month of August so we are treated to a Gingersnaps Creations "blue moon" challenge. The brief was to create something from a past Art Exchange which Gingersnaps run over on their Yahoo group....all details can be found on their blog!
My fellow design team buddies have as usual excelled at this challenge. I decided to go with the altered coasters in a romantic theme, the brief was to include a heart back in February earlier this year. My coasters were another charity shop find...4 solid wooden coasters for 50pence. Here I have painted and decorated two of them....
Stream and Denim acrylic dabbers were used and overstamped with a Debbie Moore stamp. Faux metal hearts were made using mirri card, alcohol inks and Stazon. They were cut and embossed through the Cuttlebug.
The gorgeous female images are from Marianne D Designs. There is inked scrunched tissue paper in the background and punched flowers, sentiments and lace added.
I am also entering my coasters into the following challenge:-
