bah humbug bells

Challenge 21 from bah humbug is to include bells - I was getting worried ,then I unearthed this stained glass image from Funstamps when doing some much-needed clearing up (I am one of those people who would never dare to put a pic of my desk on the blog, 'cos I can very rarely actually see the desk!), partly driven by having to find the bed for my daughter's threatened visit and also by a clearance sale at the local Focus store.
Anyhow, I stamped the bells with black memento ink, coloured them in with promarkers, cut them out and glued them onto a kraft card also found during the mammoth event. The wallstones were hand-drawn with sandstone promarker, deliberately squiffy to look ancient, and heavily smudged with blender pen.

  1. Hi Veronica, what a great card. Love how you have done the wall on your kraft card, that window image looks perfect on it. Thanks for visiting me. Hugs x ChrisB

  2. That's a great card vronnie. The promarkers seem to be much more vibrant colours than the copic markers, but maybe I just don't have the right set of copics yet.The wall is just great too. Kate x

  5. Love your clever stonework Veronica. It looks very realistic and the window is lovely and really looks as though it is lit from within.
