Think I'm inspired by all the lovely images in the new Ooh La La CD - The Paula Oakley Collection. There are so many gorgeous images on that CD, and I never realised they were all hand painted by Paula. Well I never really stoped to think about it actually, but when you do, you realise just how lovely they are!
So starting at the beginning of the CD, with the very first image, I chose Agapanthus - a gorgeous purple flower which was great fun to layer up in decoupage.
Backing papers were also off the CD - and look - an insert too - all printed to match the papers used and you guessed it, off the CD!
The card was then finished with lace and pearls and will be entering the following challenges;
CD Sunday - Purple Crazy
Fantastic Tuesday - Pearls
Creative Moments - Anything Goes
Wonderful Wednesdays - Anything Goes
Everybody Art Challenge - Pearls (320)
Card Mania - Flowers
Woopsie Daisy - Flowers
The Corrosive Challenges - Floral Frenzy
Beautiful card Janice. The images on the new Paula Oakley CD are stunning and as you say all hand painted. They defo have the wow factor. Thank you for taking part in our special challenge for Wendy aka Purple Crazy at CD Sunday. Wynn DT
