FROM THE HEART


I had been thinking about this card for a number of days and never go around to making it. I have had some Twinkling H2Os for awhile, but have never used them. I was thinking that I would like to try them out on Shimmery White SU paper. I also used some watercolor pencils. It honestly did not take long to make. Should have done it sooner.

Thank you for your comments!!

SPLITCOAST CHALLENGE: WAYS TO USE IT: ENCOURAGEMENT

I have not been crafting much this year as yet. I still go and see what's going on at Splitcoaststampers and check out their challenges and such. So today I was inspired to participate in the Ways to use it Challenge. There is always somebody we know who can use some encouragment. So, here is my creation:

I don't know why, but my cards always turn out a bit differently then I had anicipated. I do not have a photographic memory and cannot 'SEE' a complete image in my brain as some people can i.e., my hubby. Guess that might have something to do with it. But I think I am quite satisfied with this card.
The technique I used is one that I have seen being used with this set Fifth Ave. Florals, which uses shimmery white paper, on which you emboss the image in white and then spray with water and add color with reinkers. I had this image lying around, so I decided to use it.

Thanks for comming by. Love reading your comments!!

Happy Stamping!!
