Good evening blogland,
An unusual time for me to be posting, but I'm here for two reasons, one, to join in with a challenge and, two, to show off my TTT in her prom dress.
So the card I made this weekend, I'm still in a bit of an experimental mood and I was trying splattering again. I've still not got the hang of it, I ended up with more 'splodge' than 'splatter'. I was also trying to use a square stencil on a round card and I couldn't quite work out how to get it right - things kept moving and the stencil wasn't centred on the card. Hmmm, frustrations ensued!
I also took a close up of the background, to try and catch the sparkle - not sure it worked too well!
On a personal note - I've been banging on about TTT (The Terrible Teen, otherwise known as my daughter) who took her GCSEs this year, turned 16 in June, finished her last year at Grammar School and had her Year 11 Prom this month. These are a few pictures of her (and her friends) at the Year 11 Prom. We are, probably, getting closer to sorting out 6th Form, but it all hinges on her exam results and the school's final decision on what courses they are going to offer. So still mildly stressed but not totally stressed as we were in late June!

ReplyDeleteWell for all your struggles with the splatters and circles vs squares, I believe your card is striking and well done! Yes capturing sparkle in a picture is difficult. Beautiful daughter and great pics! Thank you so much for joining us at The Happy Little Stencil Challenge this month.
