Add Some Text at Try it on Tuesday




Our new challenge at Try it on Tuesday is  Add Some Text - stamped, printed or hand written, it's up to you.

I wasn't prepared with this challenge and after not crafting for a couple of weeks, I decided to just do 'something' - no pressure if it didn't turn out right  - something for fun!  I've had this image, cut out from a magazine,  for ages and the quote, which |I heard somewhere, always stuck with me, so  I printed the quote out and cut apart.  The background was an experiment I did a while ago with inks and an acrylic block and I thought the colours perfectly suited this girl.  Some hand doodling around the edges and  done!

The rest of the team have some great inspiration for you, so please pop over to the main blog for all the details.

Thanks for calling in,

Avril xx

It’s a bit different than your usual style, but totally awesome, colorful and fun! I think I need to get hold on some magazines and see what I can find, I see many find inspiration from images found in magazines.

The quote made me chuckle Avril but your card is also gorgeous visually with those two colours that were made to go together! Vicky x
