COLOUR CHALLENGE
And Here is My Take on the Challenge....
I decided to have a go at a Wall Hanging
Using Autumn Colours...
Yes... stepping way outside of my comfort zone....
Oh I do love colour and am inspired it...
But will confess I usually work in pastels...
As you know.... :)So The Colours I have used are
Burgundy, Chartreuse, Chocolate, Yellow and Wheat... The fabrics I have used are strips of silk in those colours
Wrapped around a Chipboard Circle to Create the Frame...
And some Muslin to Frame the Image...
And a Close Up....
So thanks so much for the Challenge LGS Girls!!!
Really enjoyed this step Outside my Comfort Zone!
Looking forward to next Month...
The Papers and Flowers are by PRIMA.
Other items used include Fabrics, Muslin, Distress Ink in Old Paper and Wild Honey,
Chipboard, MM Metal Embellishment, Ink Pear Tart, Bird,
Lace and a good old fashioned Cup of Tea!!!
The Gorgeous Image I used is from
Magic MoonlightThanks for visiting....
Bye for Now,
Lou xx
