Anything But Average
Dies and Punches
All Stitched Up
All That Glitters
TV Dinners
I saw a card at melstampz.blogspot.com that I thought was realyy terrifc. Mel had made her own cityscape and altered a stamp to get a look she wanted for the Anya she used on the front. I wanted to try something similar myself.
I doodled this background months ago and have just had it lying around. I had the idea for the Sex and the City girls to use a Stamping Bella stamp and cut them out and smoosh them all closer together. I wanted to use flowers as an homage to Carrie's clothing but couldn't figure out anything that looked right and so just left them off.
The clouds were made with multiple die cuts made with the MFT cloud die that were sponged with Distress Inks and then faux stitched and layered together. I think Mel also had stitching on her sky and the blue/pink sky. Everything else was coloured with copics. The skyscrapers are done with the C's with BG72 over top of that.
Hope you like it and TFL.
