The colours are exquisite, it&#8217;s a fabulous use of Tim&#8217;s paper dolls and the whole piece is just stunning!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sallyandcraftyvamp.blogspot.com\/2018\/10\/simon-says-stamp-monday-challenge.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#6 Metro<\/a> &#8211; Meihsia says: I love this fantastic mixed media card with so many awesome details. Debbie created a beautiful distressed color scheme and great sentiments. The buildings and cars in the city, and the stitches around the card are simply wonderful!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.experimentsincraft.com\/?p=969\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#37 Experiments in Craft<\/a> &#8211; Andrea says: I am so impressed with this craft &#8220;experiment&#8221; and how wonderfully it turned out! It is a stunning mix of grays and blacks with just the right bit of color. I particularly love the ombre-type of effect of the green tones toward the bottom of the cityscape. It is gritty and vibrant and lovely all at once.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bo6XQYDnQc_\/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&amp;igshid=1jdgamxj32f6f\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#53 Mylo<\/a> &#8211; Macarena says: This evening city scene caught my eye and I guess it&#8217;s due to the great mix of colors on the background and on the buildings, too. I love how Mylo gave color and shades to the houses, they look like there are cars on the street passing by and lighting random parts of the walls. Great effect!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/rubydoobydoocrafts.blogspot.com\/2018\/10\/bats-and-bettys-birthday-card.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#67 Lynne in NI<\/a> &#8211; Anna-Karin says: Lynne made a beautiful card with a lovely silhouette of a town. The cloudy sky with the moon is gorgeous.
