Well I finally got round to finishing this card and am so pleased with the way it has turned out. This is a sneak peak of one of the many new LOTV Stamps that are due for release on the 10th March. Oh, they are gorgeous and just keep getting better!
Originally I just coloured this gorgeous image with Copics but got my TSV yesterday and wanted to have a play with it so distressed the background and covered with a layer of Crackle Glaze.
I then went on to distress all the lovely papers from Fancy Pants.
I've used the MS Butterfly and Leaf punches, flowers from stash and sentiment from a set I found in my draw whilst having a major sortout the other day. Added lots of stickles, string of pearls and a Gold Heart that I rubbed with Distress Inks and then edged with Liquid Pearls and sprinkled with Glamour Dust.
Had to take several piccies as the light is really poor today and I wanted to catch all the glimmer on this card. Its so much nicer IRL
I didn't follow a sketch, just done my own thing but my card does fit in with the following challenges;
SSDS - SPARKLE
CRAZY4CHALLENGES - TEXTURES
A SPOONFUL OF SUGAR - DISTRESS INK, GLITTER & PEARLS
FLUTTERBY WEDNESDAY - OPEN
FUSSY & FANCY FRIDAY - MOVIES (lump of sugar - (a girl who is band from hose riding)
SCRAPPY FROG - CHALLENGE YOURSELF (used Tim Holtz products)
My craft room is all tidied and am alot more organised. I cant remember how to change the lense on my camera as have a whooper on atm so will post these another time.
Forgot to say, my card below was featured on the Kraftin Kimmie Challenge Blog, and I got another Top 3 Award which I've proudly displayed on my sidebar!
Have a lovely weekend
