Bluebells

I've been busy making samples for Crafty Individual's next Hochanda show (which will be on April 2nd) so I'm afraid my blog has been a bit neglected. Will be posting sneak peeks very soon, but in the meantime, here's my first play with their beautiful new Bluebell stamp, which they have just released.


I made the background with Pretty Gets Gritty Explosion Powders, which I discovered only recently and I just love them! They are like Brushos with bling! You can just about see a bit of their gorgeous shimmer in the photo. I also used a Tando Creative mini mask "Flourish" which I thought echoed the curve of the flower petals. I painted the bluebells with Radiant Pearls. Remember those? Hadn't used them for many years and was quite prepared to find out when I opened them that they had dried up, but they were still as good as new! I felt very virtuous about having used some old stash. Don't think I made much of a dent in my stock, though!

Gorgeous Lynne, and the background using the PGG shimmery powders goes beautifully with the prettily coloured bluebells and love the added stencilled flourish, and not sure what blue that is but it is a wonderful vibrant colour. x

It's possible that it could refer to a brand, company, or project that emerged after that date or is not widely known. If "Creative Lynks" is a specific entity or term you're referring to,franklin graham home value please provide more context or details, and I'll do my best to help generate a relevant comment.
