Jo Inspired House


Jo Myhill is back on the PA Blog with a DT spot and she's decorated a wooden plaque in the shape of a house which you can see here. I used the above wooden shape for my make.


I pretty much followed what she did with the technique and colours, but used different minis.


Instead of using UTEE on the heart, I gave it three coats of PA glossy glaze and as I'd used adirondack wild plum to stamp the flourish it reacted with the glaze.


Here is a close up of the heart and flourish image.

I'm also entering into this weeks PanPastelUk challenge which is to use a base other than card or paper.

**Edited**
Just for the record, no pink was used in this make!!!!

Lovely layers of stamping on the house, and gorgeous flowers on the heart in - what's that you say, Plum? Well, of course, if you say so... You say "potato", I say "I'm not the only one flirting with pink"!!
