Hels' Sunday Stamper week 302 - Mother Nature's Son

At the start of the year I decided that I would attempt to make all of Hels' Sunday Stamper challenges in 2014.  Well, it hasn't gone quite to plan, but I finally managed a second one on time!! (the first one was submitted via facebook, back in January!!)  You can check out Hels' Challenge for the week here.

I started by applying a layer of AmericanaDecou-page matte before painting the bottle holder green; actually, the colour you see is about the 3rd coat as I kept mixing until I found a shade that I liked!!  (I have used a mix of docrafts and ecogreen crafts acrylic paints)

Once the paint was dry, I stencilled on some scattered honeycomb shapes using a slightly yellower shade of my green mix.  Last job before sticking on the paper flowers was to stamp on some scattered flowers using Library Green archival ink.


I hope you like it; thanks for stopping by.
