My inspiration creation for this second Challenge is made on mostly
a piece of crumpled copy paper, after adhered to a White Greyboard Panel ,
I used Multi Surface Paints in Teal and Chestnut Brown , first dabbing over the paper
with very diluted colors. After dry I stamped the script , from Textures Collection Stamp Set 3
.The big circle with a smaller inside, is actually the roll from a finished taperoll-
as I wanted a big circle . Also used is the smaller circle from .
Textures Stamp Set - 2
Onto tissue paper, I stamped Donna Gray`s beautiful tree,from her
Carved Whimsy Wood stamp set. I tore around the perimeter
and adhered it to the paper with Multi Purpose Craft Adhesive.
Another few circles were stamped on top of it .
From Lynne`s Affirmations set 3 -the line of birds was stamped onto a rest of the painted copy paper,
with Sky Blue, Brilliance ink , torn out and also adhered to the paper.
The tree trunk was extended a bit, by stamping the end of the trunk , between the line of birds. and sewed and adhered to the paper, too.
With my sewing machine I sewed around one of the big circles , with teal thread, and
cut the thread to hang ,dangling. 4 teal buttons from my stash was also sewed onto the paper .
Paper was adhered to the panel, and also a piece of canvas,netting, teal fabric ,below the
birds. Lynne`s Affirmation ,from set 1 was stamped and adhered to the teal fabric,and another
button carefully sewed on. Around the perimeter of the panel I painted with diluted Chestnut Brown ,and stamped a few buttons, from Textures Collection Stamp Set -3.
I think this ends my rather long story, and am thanking you so very much if you followed
me all the way to here :-)
Love and hugs

100% wonderful Dorthe! <3 Love this great collage~ There are great textures for interest, but also noticing some subtle sweet birds stamped on, and the text is great too! I'll take a peek at "That's Crafty" : ) Hugs to you, karen o
Beautiful neutrals and a hit of blues. xox
You always make such complex compositions. Here again so much fantastic detail dear Dorthe! And I love the colours and the sewing with the teal thread ! You made such good and artistic use of Donna's tree!
GORGEOUS! Have a good rest of the week!
Hugs, Susi
It's that winning colour combination again Dorthe and it warms my heart. Donna's tree is fabulous surrounded by all those circles. Your buttons make a great addition along with the stitching, i'm always so nervous when i'm stitching in circles. A beautiful take on the challenge. Thank you for sharing.
Wishing you well and plenty of sunshine Big Hugs Tracey xx
