That's the story behind this card. Is it the best card I ever made? Heck no...probably wouldn't even be in my top 100...but the fun factor was definitely a 10. A Perfect 10!
I used a Stampendous stamp for the image. I just think she's cute!
I made the background with Distress Ink after embossing a little flower border across with a Heidi Swapp stamp I had for quite some time I'd never used.
The little girl was colored in with Copics, a little Rock Candy Stickles was added to the flowers and a little Glossy accents to her hair bows. I used Spellbinder dies to cut the mats and then inked sort of a stencil inside with Distress Ink. The sentiment was embossed before inking, too.
Fun Factor=10. I love that I used older stamps I had, I love embossing (oh, how I love that!), I love creating backgrounds with inks...and I love a little sparkle to my cards! FUN!
Happy Crafting!
Definitely a cute image. The sentiment is perfect for the image. I need to use stickles & glossy accents more for the sparkle they provide.
