Hooray for the...

...Red, White & Blue.

Well that's the theme over at "Kenny K's Krafty Girlz Challenges" for this week - why not hop over there and have a look at the things that the new DT produced.

This is my entry to the challenge...
I went for a tent-fold from a sheet of A4 leather effect blue CS and attached a large panel of paisley PP (Costco - 300 sheet 12x12 pack). The Kenny K digi image was coloured with Copic pens.
I made use of two of the ATC size marbled panels that I made on Saturday. This one was done on matt white card...
...and this one was done on glossy white card.

The technique used to achieve the marble effect was shaving-foam and Adirondack inks. The foam acts as a medium to hold the ink so that you can swirl it around or just blob it before laying the card on top and gently pressing down. Very messy but an effective way of playing with inks.

The coloured image was attached over the panels and some R/W/B card candy was used to embellish.

Hope you like it.............................
