A little crooked house


Morning Peeps, time for a new challenge at Allsorts and this week I am your host and I have a theme with an optional twist, it's 'Anything Goes' with the option to take inspiration from this weeks prize, a recent new release A4 stamp set from Rare Earth

My top piece is inspired by the prize and is an A5 canvas, lots of paint and ink, crackle glaze and a Kim Moody House stamp made for a Hochanda TV show a while back. The rhyme is computer generated and some inked chipboard leaves and toadstools.


My second piece has a Distress Ink background, Inkylicious Poppies, Penny Black floral stems and  sentiment all stamped with Verafine Clair.

I do hope you will join us this week and wish you all a lovely weekend.

  11. It's a fabulous canvas Brenda, and a brilliant idea to use the nursery rhyme with this image, some little girl would love this.
    Gorgeous coloured sky with the poppies and it's a lovely verse.

  16. How fun rhyme in the first card and the crackle texture with the sun rays give a special effect to the house scene! A very unique design!
    LOVE so much the second card, my favourite! The blending on the background is just perfect and so vibrant, the poppies and stems have a fabulous feel and the dimensional butterfly looks just amazing!
    Hope that the sun is shining in your garden, there are a lot of things to do in this season... :) I have put seeds and plants for the winter just today.
    Hope also that you are well and enjoy your weekend.
    Hugs
