Merry Monday #58 - Guest Designer

Hi! Well I'm honored this week to be a Guest Designer over at Merry Monday!!!

Here's the sketch we have to play with:


And my contribution:


I have varied the sketch a little, by pulling circle up a bit, so that I could use it highlight Mary and baby Jesus. I stamped the image in staz on onto watercolour paper, then masked it and brayered the background using bashful blue, baja breeze and marina mist. I then coloured the image with my aqua pen and then punched out my circle and layered onto so saffron with dimensionals. I coloured, fussy cut and mounted with dimensionals the star and covered it with glossy accents. If you have any question, just ask :)

Now I know you will want to check out the other amazing creations the design team have created. Thank you Lesley and girls for letting me share my card on your fantastic challenge :)

Thanks for looking
