Hello everyone I have to make this a quick post, but I did want to share this cute heart topiary image from Rubbernecker. This is the small image and they have a large one too. I put some bling on the flowers (swarovski crystals), the picture just doesn’t do it justice, also some dazzling diamonds on the butterfly.

Hello everyone, my card that I’m sharing with you today is done with mojo sketch 70. I used a technique called resisting with ink. I put about 10 drops of antique linen distress ink in a mini mister, with some perfect pearls powder, then filled the rest with water. Shake well….lol! I stamped the flower image(Nature’s Moments) onto vintage cream cardstock in versamark dazzle, embossed with clear ep. This is where you then use the mini mister to spray the image, let dry, wipe off any ink that was left on the clear ep. After it was dry I then used the color spritzing tool by SU with a real red marker. I did trace around the image with my W2 Copic marker to give it some depth and shadow. The scallop circle & circle are cut out with my Nesties. I colored the red pearls with a Copic marker R29. I sponged everything with antique linen distress ink & ink blending tool. I did a little zig zag stitching on the back cream panel(a little crooked), I also used the Martha Stewart lace border punch on that panel. The little butterfly is a Marvy Uchida punch. All the pearls are from Kandi Corp.

Hi everyone I had some time to play in my studio and I made this card to share with you. It is for the Limited Supplies Challenge over on Splitcoast. The challenge is to use a black card base to make your colors pop! Follow Your Dreams sentiment is from Rubbernecker. I used a black glaze pen to trace over the sentiment to make it stand out more. I sponged some fresh snow ink around the black panel to make it stand out more also.I love how the black really makes the colors pop!!

I wish you could see this card in real life…..the roses (Rubbernecker) are so beautiful! I colored the roses with Copic markers almost a week ago then I just let them sit???? Then I cut them out a few days later and then I finished the card this morning, so a little over a week to make this card…hehe! The back of the roses are dry embossed with a stylus and I used some foam tape to pop up the middle of them. I used the SU color spritzer tool with a Copic marker (yes a Copic marker) to spritz the pink cardstock and a little of the white. The semtiment is a rub-on from SU eastern elegance. The heart stick pin I got from Michael’s or Joann’s. I used some swarovski crystal beads in pink and green on the stick pin. The ribbon I think is from a ribbon share that Jody had…..scallop satin ribbon…I think. The DP is from SU Bella Rose.

I took several pictures of this card(like 20) to try and get all the dimension of the roses.

These are the 3 pictures I settled for.
