Octopode Card

I am so loving getting messy, i often now am either covered in paint or ink - both even!
After getting a load of back issues of Craft Stamper Mag at the weekend i thought i would have a go at a new technique - well new for me and here is the end result..
I love how the background came out. Basically i used acrylic paint but tried brayering with it then brayering with a layer of gesso then repeating a few times! It was soooo much fun although i literally had paint absolutely everywhere, my head and eyebrows even!!

The image is of course an Octopode Digi, the flowers are by Lavinia and the banners are a Whimsy Stamp Set that i have had for a while but never even cut it up! I printed the sentiment out and attached it with Matt Medium.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges...


See you all soon :) Kitty xx
