First is my last homework card for Altenew All About Layering 3.
The background is Altenew Pegboard Canvas Cover Die. I added Star Dust Stickles to the flower centers & used black pearls for embellishment. The sentiment from Painted Greetings was black embossed on a vellum scrap. I'm entering The Snippets Playground.
I black embossed the 2009 Hero Arts stamp called Heart Frame. Then I blended DI chipped sapphire, getting lighter as I went from the edges toward the big heart. The sentiment is from a 2008 HA mini set that includes 12 gems. I actually have this stamp set listed on my for sale page, as I had never used it. To add silver foil, I just used my Quickie Glue pen in some of the hearts & pressed on foil when it was tacky.
I used Score Tape on the card front so I could have a silver foil border. Decided against embellishments, but I did spray heavily with shimmer mist--gorgeous in person. I'm also entering SSS Wednesday.
My last card is made with a very, very old unmounted stamp, so I have no idea who made it.
I added black Pico Embellisher to the eyes & nose & colored the red stripes with a Memento marker. Red Stickles was added to the tiny hearts. Love this Gina Marie die enabled by my friend, Brenda. I'm entering Stamplorations Theme, SSS Monday & SSS Wednesday.
