SOARTFUL CHALLENGE - CHANCE

This weeks challenge over at soartful is to use the ticket photo for inspiration and the theme being CHANCE.

I think I may have got a little carried away this week, or maybe I am going stair crazy withthis cold weather and white stuff thats now more or less gone and left us with rain rain and more rain, oh how I crave the sun and heat of the summer lol Any how, I have been laughing my socks off for the last few days as I find this hilarious BUT my hubby and son dont GET IT. lmao.

PERHAPS ITS ME!!!! but I just find it hilarious that they dont get that either lol
This is my digital image I created, but I wanted to go a little further with it.........

This is what I then created making it a more dimentional piece.......
This is just paper piecing with the same images but adding multi media effects to the background, I added a fine layer of gesso and then spritz with a pearlescent ink, but you cant really see it in the photo.


Then because I liked the backing paper I had created so much, I then went on to create this piece which has taken me roughly 3 days thinking on and off and the same making as I have added bits and pieces to it.

This time I have torn the background paper into pieces and glued it onto a backing then stitched to a pearlescent paper, added the wording with letter from a K & Co embelly kit then added the image in different colours onto the backing xxx

Let me know what you think, do YOU get it, or is it JUST ME !!! lol
