ZENNING UNDER THE SEA

Hi and welcome. This month's inspiration at Archiscraps is all about zentangling.
I've been doing this technique in various forms for a while now and decided to incorporate the idea into an underwater scene.




This is one of the three inspirational photos used this month.


Pop on over to archiscraps and check out the other two  inspirational photos and the work from their team members.
Catch you again soon.
Cheers, Di

BALL SEASON


Hi! October already!!!! Pixels and Paper, this month has gone shabby chic with frames as the additional criteria.
For this challenge, I went with the shabby chic feel and used a background paper that was patterned like lace. On this I stencilled overlapping oval frames, using a white pearl modelling cream.



In the corners, I added a lace diecut and then randomly added white and gold flowers. Some of these have ribbon and pearl centres, and on others I have added quilled roses I made from pearlised cream or gold paper.
 
 


The centres of the frames were cut out and photos inserted underneath. These were taken at  two different balls held in Lismore at the City Hall, 1973 and 1974. These are of my other half and myself.

Catch you soon. Cheers, Di
