Now that's what I call a challenge!


Two of my favourite challenges go live today, Stampotique and One layer Wednesday, and they both have quite tricky challenges this week. Stampotique is to use turquoise and orange: a colour combination I could never imagine picking out myself, and OLW has a sketch challenge - a sketch challenge without layers!! now that's a challenge. So just to make it even more of a challenge I decided to combine both of the challenge to make this card.
Here's the sketch, I think I stuck to it quite well!

I have used iridescent spray and sparkle (love that stuff) on the fairy's wings. I hope you can see it in this close up

stamps used are all by stampotique
Moon girl 6035
Giant Shroom 3009
silence speaks 3012
splatter long 3014
sun design 2095

I'm excited that this will be my last Stampotique challenge as a participant for now, as of the next challenge I will be on the DT side.
