Born Again

Hello.  Welcome.  This is one of the UFO's I produced yesterday.  I made a background using a homemade circle mask and sponged on various blue distress inks



Then I came to a halt.  But today, on reflection, I had an idea.....



I took a piece of the background, cut it into three, mounted on a dark blue base and added a nutcracker from Mark's Finest Papers Nutcracker stamp set.  I obviously was still stuck in purple and green land courtesy of my Promarkers.

  4. Great homemade mask, Gail, providing a lot of interest. I just don't think of using my sponges! Hummmph! I have them, just don't think of them. But, your results here make me want to remember them. Very clever partitioning of your work, and a gorgeous nutcracker, indeed!
