Anyway, despite all of that, when I saw the new windmill stamp I decided to go to Holland (well, not literally but you know what I mean) and create a Delft tile scene.
I think it probably came into my mind thanks to the little clog ornament that I have. They can't remember how it came into their possession but Mum and Dad have had it since I was a kid. Somehow it's ended up in one of the drawers of my Welsh dresser, so I dug it out and set about creating my own little piece of "Delft".
I cut two circle masks on my Cameo - Using the smaller one I inked through the aperture to create the scene, then I used the larger circle to mask off the scene and create a small white border between the two.

ReplyDeleteHi Lynne- I too have little ornaments like you, both clogs and a windmill that my Grandparents brought back for me from their travels when I was young. I have them in my front room cabinet and it was the first thing that came to my mind also whn I saw this set. It is such a lovely set and lends itself to so many wonderful scenes. Your card is beautiful and I was fascinated to hear about your use of the cameo. Lots of love, Emily x
