Such wonderful abstract art she's created this week too, check them out if you haven't.
I started these cards yesterday, based on her day 2 post and when I stopped last night, with the background partly done, I wasn't at all happy - but carried on regardless tonight, to a finish - and I DO like the results now!! Just shows, you can't always tell until something is finished, if it's worked or not!
as you can see, I used the same main image as Ellen, partly because it's one of my favourites, but mainly because it's a nice open design and goes over the backgrounds so well.
Anyhow, this was a great idea, fab backgrounds, Ellen thank you for this weeks projects - hope to try the tag too...

Oooh, tablet being kind and let me onto your blog :-). What a fab job you made of these Helen. The background looks wonderful once all the layers are complete. I've always loved that flower too! Well done on completing an challenge entry so quickly.

wow these turned out great Helen!! lovely bright colours and the stamp in black finishes them off nicely :) xx
Fantastic. Just right for wintry blues. Bright, zingy and gorgeous. Love them.
Ooooh! These are just gorgeous Helen. Loving those collaged backgrounds and the zingy colours. The images are perfect for it!
Popping in for a closer look after seeing the cards in the WOYWW post and closer look really paying off. May just have to have an afternoon with my acrylics and make a total, if slightly artistic, mess.

Great technique and fab end product although having tried this I have to say that it is a bit daunting once you've added all that colour and stamping and the like. They really pop when you add the black images though and yours look stunning.
