My make for the Card Chain Challenge in January was sent to Helen in Ohio and I received a lovely make from Marianne in Greece!
I was happy that I managed to incorporate the colour option, the Mythical Creatures theme and the Ink Technique this time.
My background was created with Wilted Violet and a touch of Tattered Rose for the sky for the nearest to Amethyst I could get!
I masked off the moon and inked round it using VersaMagic Sea Breeze for the Aqua colour.
For the Slate I stamped the tree in Memento Grey Flannel.
I tried stamping the unicorn in the same colour but he really didn't stand out so opted to over stamp a couple of times (thank goodness for Misti!) with Versafine Smokey Grey. The over stamping really darkened him.
A few trees on the horizon with the Grey Flannel and the flowers and foliage at the bottom using all the inks mentioned before.
I blended some Hickory Smoke round the edge.
My little Unicorn simply had to have a little bit of sparkle added to his horn, mane and tail but doesn't show very well in the pic. The light here over the winter months has been terrible for taking pics!
There is still time for you to link up for the February challenge - everything you need to know over on the Card Chain blog!
If you're always trying to be normal, you'll never know how amazing you can be................
