Challenge #46 at A Blog Named Hero Is "Bokeh"
For those of you unfamiliar with the Bokeh effect, it's a photography term, and it refers to the look of sparkles that appear in a photograph when part of the image is out of focus or if light reflects.
I made a couple of cards for this challenge, the bottom card is my favourite although the top has more sparkle than you can see as I have sprayed the background with shimmer mist!! The Happy Birthday is cut using my Silhouette machine.
This second card is made by just dabbing the card with my Distress Stains, I have also added "A Touch Of Stella" to the dots for added sparkle.
The weather here has been glorious this weekend and I am out to sit in the garden now. Happy Sunday!!!
Really must have a go at this style! Great cards Sally, Jo x
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are fabulous, Sally! I love the first one best, I think.
ReplyDeleteThese are really fun designs! I love the watercolor look on the first card. Thanks for joining us at A Blog Named Hero :)
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are simply delightful Sally. Beautifully done.
ReplyDeleteI rather love that first card Sally! Although the second one is very nicely done:)
ReplyDeleteLove both cards, Sally - the bokeh effect is really enhanced by the touches of shimmer! Thanks for joining us at A Blog Named Hero :)
ReplyDeleteOh these are gorgeous, Sally! I've never tried that effect but it sounds like fun and looks wonderful! Love all the sparkle you've added too!
