Fleur

Happy Easter Day everyone.
The cream base for this card is 5.5 inches square. The two coloured layers show a couple of resist techniques, the details are in Tim Holtzs Compendium of Curiosities , I love this book. The small square is my version of Shabby Chic, the other Dauber Resist.
The colours used were Butterscotch and Terracotta daubers with wild honey and tea dye distress inks, clear embossing ink and powder.
The other additions came from my stash, adding a loopy flower that I made with my flower loom.

I have found that this card will fit these challenges, there are some awesome examples, hope you will be able to  visit them
