CR8FN colour challenge....


Thought I would join in the CR8FN colour challenge this week. Using Clarity Stamps Alium stamps.  There are 3 stamps all together, stamped onto card then  I scanned the images and printed onto acetate then put some double sided clear sticky plastic (which was and idea given to me by my lovely friend Val Glover) behind the image then added some 'snake type' turqouise paper behind the flowers, mounted the images onto pale blue card which I embossed.  Added some neutral ribbon along thise side and a sentiment.Finally I added some turqouise glitter glue to the flower heads to add a bit of sparkle.
Thanks for looking...

Gorgeous Anne - what a clever trick - I was wondering how you'd got such a clean print on the snake paper til I read it!
