This week's challenge on the Craft Barn blog is retiform, something I know as the grid technique which involves a lot of stamping and masking. I have had some fun and made a page in my journal. I had made the union flag background a long time ago (I think I was planning on an Olympics page at the time) but not progressed any further with the page. It had involved a lot of masking and (I think) barn door and faded jeans DIs. I decided to do a London inspired page using Crafty Individuals British bulldog as the focal image. All the other stamps are by Artemio except for Big Ben which is by Scottish Borders.
I am also entering this as my second entry into the Crafty Individuals March Challenge.
Very original card with this English background!
