This is for Kelli Jo's Bokeh De Boppitty Boo HYCCT challenge which you can find HERE. Kelli Jo has linked to the Bokeh tutorial in her challenge write-up. It's only the second time I tried it. Big problem - I don't, really truly, have a single pencil with an eraser on the end.
So - I die-cut a little flower from fun foam about the same size as a pencil eraser would be, and stuck that to the end of pencil and used that instead .
Image stamped on white card with Brilliance Peacock for the shadow layer, which I coloured with Gelatos. Second image stamped on another sheet of white with Versafine Black, and coloured with Gelatos again.
I did my best to follow Lydia's tutorial for the bokeh background. I made a prettier one first time round but stamped the sentiment crooked and had to start again. I edged the panel with a silver pen and stuck it on a white base.
You can find the Master Challenge thread with all the HYCCT challenges HERE, and the chat thread is HERE
We do hope you'll join in this fun month of challenges for our 5th annual Hope You Can Cling To card drive, with plenty of prizes for those who participate!
