I made this today but have to say that the background was already made ages ago (I ask myself is that cheating??). It's stamped pelmet vilene with tissue paper stitched on in leaf shapes, then you tear away the excess tissue and rub a bit of PVA on to shine them a little.
Sally showed me this technique - see her blog under 'Grumpy Shopkeeper' in my links.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful. And I don't think it's cheating. You created the finished work today.
