Shrines.....

..Some people like them others are not so keen...I love them, for me its the richness of the colours and the imagery. They have no specific meaning for me though I know they do for lots of people, I just find them beautiful....so I made a little one of my own.

The stamp is Our Lady of Guadalupe. I covered her with Glossy Accents and when it was dry cracked it.

I wanted to soften the black German Scrap and add a little colour so I sanded it and coloured it with a yellow Promarker then used some Stickles. The wings were bright orange so they got the yellow promarker treatment too.


All you need to create this little shrine is available here

OMG Effie, I am 110% in love with your shrine! I'll resist the temptation to gush endlessly about how much I love it and say 'Just divine' (no pun intended LOL).
