Paperplay challenge week 36, Spot this

This weeks Paperplay Challenge was set by Julie

(Quote Julie) " Pretty self-explanatory really. I am a sucker for buying spotty paper (and stripy - but we won't go there!), then I don't use it up because I don't want to cut into it. So this week, I'd like everyone to make spotty things (using paper or indeed anything else spotty you wish)"

For this challenge I went with some Autumn colours, felt flowers and a Tilda image.

If you would like to enter the Paperplay challenge and be in with the chance to win a crafty prize all you have to do is get those spotty papers out and make a card/altered item or whatever you like and post your blog page on the Paperplay challenge blog.

PaperPlay Challenge week 36..

Kate set the paperplag challenge this week with " no patterned papers" (quote Kate ) You are not allowed to use any patterned paper in your project. You may however (if you wish) make your own, out of card stock for example using whatever techniques you want ! You can use paint, you can emboss or stamp it's entirely up to you or you can just use different colours of plain cardstock if that's what you want!
