Theodore in love

Hello everyone, here is my second inspirational project for the February challenge of the Country View Challenges. The theme is: Splatters, splashes and drips.

For this card, I have made a weathered wooden plank background. I'm sorry, I won't tell you here how I made it, because I've already made and shared with you a similar tutorial. So if you like it, please visit my earlier blogpost.

The only difference, that here I scored the paper more often,  the cover painting was light blue and I splattered with diluted white paint this time.

If you need a tutorial of assembling Theodore, then please visit my earlier blogpost too (that's another one).

The strip on the bottom was made with the Sizzix Impresslits die, 3D Star Trim by Tim Holtz. I cut out from 300gsm watercolour paper and coloured Walnut Stain Ranger Distress marker first, then with Tarnished Brass Distress Crayon.

What I used:

Sizzix Thinlits die, Alphanumeric Label by Tim Holtz

Sizzix Thinlits die, Theodore by Tim Holtz

Sizzix Impresslits die, 3D Star Trim by Tim Holtz

Sizzix Movers&Shapers die Mini Love Stuck by Tim Holtz
