Dreams Come True


So I've been playing with the Gelli Plate again.  This time using red, white and blue (and pink), which isn't a combination I'd normally go for, but I wanted to play along with A Mixed Media Challenge where the colour theme is pink, red and light blue.


The pattern on the background is from an embossing plate, and the stamp is by Neat & Tangled.  I laced some baker's twine around the heart for a bit of interest/texture.
