Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge - challenge 1 May

What did you want to be when you grew up??? That's the question/challenge that is over at

Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge

 this month for May!

So I thought I would give the challenge a go....

 

 

 

I found an old photo of me painting as a child ( something I was ALWAYS doing...)

I may not be a 'painter' as such but I am pretty arty and crafty and they go hand in hand...

 

I created the background by tearing old book pages and sticking them down onto card, I then dry brushed Gesso over the top and then using the awesome Dylusions Ink Sprays I created this artistic master piece!

 

There are also hints of Scrapmatts Butterflies, Purple pumpkin buttons and doily and Rainbow Splendour felt heart...

 

Thanks for looking
