This is the card I came up with from it's first outing.
Ultra marine blue & lemon brushos, sprinkled & sprayed onto white card. Stamped with black archival when dry then I used a paint brush & some domestos to bleach out the leaf tips. They do say to use el cheapo thin bleach but the card isnt suitable for water really and it would have pilled if I'd had to do more than one coat, not only that domestos takes the colour out pretty much instantly ;o)
Once the bleach was totally dry I went in with some glamour dust and added just a hint to the very tips of the leaves and used a cluster of star stamps from lavinia randomly around the page and added a very small gem to the centre of the larger stars.
The theme on the Lavinia Challenge blog is to add some gems so I shall enter this one.
