plain and simple...

Hi its Carol with you again today and instead of my usual style I thought I'd bring you something clean and simple...which really isn't me!! but its good to try something different every now and again...

The base is a white 6 inch square card blank which I always use opening from the bottom.... I mixed texture paste with paint and used a stencil to centre onto the wooden my minds eye Miss Caroline shape   then heated with a heat gun.  Now at this point I had every intention of painting over the piece and then adding definition with other colours and shapes, but, I liked the result so much that I left it as was and just added a bit of shading around the outside.  Some Tim Holtz tape coloured with distress ink, a piece of lace and some kraft glassine paper and some prima bling added a bit of body to the card.  The doodling was added using a nib pen and calligraphy ink.
