Inspired by Banksy!

What a fantastic challenge the Daring Card Makers have set this week!  I really enjoyed being...

'Inspired by Banksy'
If you're not aware of who he is, then pop on by Banksy.co.uk and take a look at some of his amazing street art across the world - you could also try a Google Image search on "Banksy" to find lots of fabulous ideas for your card.
 
 This was the Banksy image I chose to be inspired by and here is my card:

Background was created with Adirondack Dye Pad 'Pebble',  the Victorian girl stamp came in a bundle of pre-owned stamps so I don't know it's origin,  the hearts were a freebie on a magazine.  I even used my own handwriting (shock!) and a bit of doodling to finish it off.

  2. This is soooo lovely Janice - that picture seems to be a real favourite among the Banksy works, and it's easy to see why,

  3. I was drawn to that Banksy image too (not that I've managed to do anything!) - love your take on it and your handwriting looks great on here!

  4. Brilliant card Janice and I thought the handwriting was a text stamp!

    Love the background colour and technique too.
