You're Special


A couple of quick posts from me today.  This first one is for The Paper Smooches SPARKS Picture Perfect Challenge:


For Simon Says Monday Challenge, We Love Stamps!

And also for The Paper Players, where it's a colour challenge this week:

I smeared some Tattered Rose Distress Ink onto a piece of card, then rubbed it in, fading it at the bottom, then splatted it with water.  Stamped the sentiment with Memento Teal Zeal then loaded the paintbrush and splatted some over the panel.  I stamped the double triangle stamp from PS Tribalations in Encore Metallic Gold but it looked dull so I covered it in gold ep and heat embossed it instead.  Cut it out in a heart shape and sponged some Tattered Rose around the edges of the heart then mounted it.
