As soon as I saw the skyline and the paintbrush from two different Paper Smooches sets this idea popped into my head and what fun to use the Lawn Fawn polaroid to make the perfect cartoon style frame on this invitation..... okay the design is a little elaborate for mass production but I'm sure a more simple version could be made :0)
I've paper pieced everything apart from the night sky, did you see the bright fireworks?.... they were a last minute addition and oh boy did I hold my breath whilst dotting them on!!!
For details of the stamp sets I've used, hop over to the Make the Day Special blog and whilst you're there why not pop into the shop... I know Emily has just added the newest Paper Smooches stamp sets too :0)
A busy weekend for me but I hope to catch up with everyone as and when I can, thanks for your visit today :0)

So super clever, Jenny! I love the highlights on the buildings, and the night sky is gorgeous, and the fireworks are brilliant :) I can just picture the look on your face (based on like attempts of my own to not mess up with the last bit!)
ReplyDeleteJenny this is so clever....the background of fireworks is brilliant a really super and very different card

Another brilliant idea - I honestly thought you'd painted the buildings - the paperpiecing is so well done with the corner cut off you had me fooled.

ReplyDeletei wish i had just a tiny ounce of your creativity, jenny! you always come up with the most amazing ideas!! your card is brilliant!
ReplyDeleteSuch an innovative idea Jenny and lovely to see it close up! I missed the chevron background for instance when I saw it on your phone screen. Vicky x
ReplyDeleteJenny, this is stunning!! I love all the little details - the chevrons, the yellow "tape" the white highlights on the buildings and that amazing sky. You've got to do a tutorial on how you sponge those clouds. I can't wrap my brain around how to do it.
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous Jenny, such a cool design!
ReplyDeleteOh now how awesome is that sky scaper scene with that brush. Wow Jenny.
ReplyDeletewow! perfection!
