The challenges for June are going to be skinnis - 3 x 5 inches.
The theme for this week is 'house or houses'.
I started off with a piece of blue hammer textured card and distressed the edges with china blue and shabby shutters distress inks, spraying some home-made mist on to my craft sheet and dabbing the card on it to add some texture to the green area, with the effect of bushes/tree on the left.
The little houses are buttons that I bought ages ago - thought it was about time they were used. I used tiny gems to depict flowers in front of the houses, but I'm not sure they look right.
Because of the evening sun streaming in the window (not complaining!), I either had to take the photo with the curtains drawn and cut out the flash:
Or take it with the sun streaming in:
The real version looks somewhere in between thisI'm going to incorporate this on to a 'new home' card (I need a couple more for tomorrow).
That's really cute, love the teeny tiny houses.
