Mardi gras

The challenge on Soartful this week is 'mardi gras' - sadly, we don't celebrate carnival in the UK, although, of course, we do have pancakes on Shrove Tuesday.

I downloaded some of the mardi gras elements being offered by Scrapbook flair and used them together with a picture from Tenerife carnival, to make a digi LO. I added the eyes behind the mask.

Quite a few years ago we were in Tenerife during carnival time and really enjoyed the colourful procession and all th 'party atmosphere' that went along with it - and one of the best firework displays I've ever seen.

This is also for this week's challenge on Crazy Amigo: 'carnival' and for 365 cards day 338: 'colour scheme'.

I'm also linking for Lots to do week 5: 'backgrounds' - using a digi bacground (hope that counts).

    Hazel,

    This is gorgeous. I love how you used the feathers. And, aren't you clever using a portion for your inchy. The eyes are so compelling.

    Thanks for being Soartful this week.
