Psychodelic 70's


This card is made combining 4 challenges;
The image I have chosen for these challenges is "Teacup Fairy-2" from CJ at Cowgirl Up Digital Stampen Ranch. There are 4 in the series so far, all in differing styles, and I am planning on featuring all of them this month as my DT commitment to Cowgirl Up. This teacup transforming into a fairy(or visa versa) just screamed "psychodelic 70's" to me, and I thought she would go beautifully with the Anything Goes challenge colour combi. again blue/brown and yellow is such a 70's look. The pretty china cup made me think of tea in the garden on a sunny afternoon, so again worked for me with Lothian Crafts theme" summer is coming", and you can't eat outside in summer without insects so I punched some tiny bugs and dragonflys, which meant I could enter it for Sir Stampalot's June challenge to use punches. The papers are from Brenda Pinnocks Sucerie collection, and the scallloped circle and flower layers are cut with my circle frame Nellies dies.
Enjoy! I'm off for a cuppa in the garden now haha! Love as always Gina x x x
