I'm playing along for the first time in the Unity {be inspired} Challenge! I created this 8" x 10" canvas using both the color and scrapbook layout inspiration. Stamps, of course, are mostly from Unity. They are: Heartfelt Warmth, Shade Tree, Shurberry Tree, and Distressed Quilt. The checkerboard accent is from a Tim Holtz distressing set.
I paper pieced the house using both cardstock and a book page--I love the way book pages add interest to my projects. I also used various designer paper patterns--muting the grassy hills and background a bit with gesso. After applying the gesso, I used a baby wipe to remove a good deal of it, leaving an almost frosted look.
Finally, I added a few "gift with purchase" sequins....thanks, Unity! You inspire me so much!
TTFN, Jane
I love this!
