Challenge 275 Theme
'Anything Goes with Autumn Colours'
This fortnight I am working with the image
Buck Wild by Reeces Scrap Pieces, a gorgeous digital image to colour or in this case work with digitally to create a needlework applique effect.
To begin with I placed the image into Photoshop and by creating multiple layers added my pattern fills for each area. Once done I printed the image and added the black stitching lines by hand. The image was then mounted on black paper. For the background on the card base I used the Hexagon die by Sarah Davis of Crafters Companion and scraps of brown and yellow papers I had lying around. WOW that took me ages but I do love the outcome LOL. To finish off I added three skeleton leaves and a die cut called Love Land Corner by Memory Box. I kept all the hearts that were part of the cut out design (obvious in a 'use lots of scraps day today) and used them to decorate the left side of the card. Each heart and heart cut out area was embellished with a yellow glass heart gem. Last bit was to ad my text using the Die'sire die, Just Because.
Inside of card - saying as I had some hexagons left over and it seemed a shame to put them in the bin I used them to add a bit of decoration and finished off the edges with lines using a gold pen.
