Over at the Craft Barn their challenge is to use either the words Art or Road. Do hope you go along and join in this fascinating challenge.

Materials:

350gsm Cardstock

Pan Pastels

Typewriter

Wallpaper

Die cut delicate vine from Memory Box

Gold doily

Tissue paper

Mirror Card

Sizzix stamps and matching dies

Dylusions Sprays

Urban Stamp All Aboard Postmark

The background of the iCard was taken from a mop up page from Dylusions Sprays, added the Urban Stamp All Aboard Postmark to the background then added Pewter Pan Pastel over the top, sealed with hairspray.

The flower, doily and delicate vine were all added to the front, then the quote by Anthony Trollope.

P1060313

There is no royal ROAD to learning; no short cut to the acquirement of ART.

Used Pan Pastels and the Urban Stamp onto the back of the iCard then added a flower from tissue paper and using a flower and die cut set from Sizzix. Hand wrote the quote on the back and dated.

    You deserve a gold star for finding a quote with both words in it. Don't you just LOVE mop up backgrounds? Free and reduces what we send to the landfill. This is a beautiful IC. Very impressive.
