That Craft Place Challenge


The theme for this fortnight's That Craft Place challenge is make your own background ...

I am pants at backgrounds!!!!  But thanks to a lesson from my lovely friend Ali, I managed to have a go at this!!


I used this Paper Artsy stamp - Crowns and castles 4-  and coloured it in using copics.  I made a cloud mask and use broken china distress ink to create the sky.  The swirl grass from the same stamp set were stamped in mown lawn distress ink.  The dp is Bo Bunny Market Place, and I added some twine and buttons to finish it off.


Challenges:
Simon Says Stamp - anything goes 
Charisma Cardz - for the guys
Southern Girls - spots and stripes
