Over on the PA blog Joanne Wardle has made a guest appearance with a clean and simple card which you can see here. I took the same approach but instead of a card, painted an mdf plaque and as you know, I don't do flowers, so chose the image off the PA I&D one penny #2 plate. I used Irish cream fresco paint for the background, I stamped the PA mini bricks in French roast and the splodges in a mix of mocha mousse and little black dress.
I found it really hard not to do anything else to it, but now I've left it and gone back to it, I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

Lovely card. Thanks for joining us @ paperartsy.
Brilliant!! I like the card imagination and she looks so beautiful.
Love your take on Clare's card!
Love your plaque Sam! Haven't seen any PA posts yet this week but I think I'm going to like Joanne's project judging by yours and Helen's gorgeous pieces. The stamps you have used are very effective in the background and I love the wings girl. The subtle colours are fab!

This is terrific Sam and definitely doesn't need anything else to make it stand out.

A great take on Joanne's card Sam! xxx
It looks wonderful Sam.
So subtle and beautiful - well-restrained of you... it really doesn't need anything else - it speaks just as it is.
