I made a card for the current MFT Sketch Challenge using several of the new goodies I got for Christmas!
I used my new Watercolor Stripes Background stamp for the base. I alternated rows applying Pumice Stone and Worn Lipstick distress stains directly to the stamp and then laid my white paper down. This resulted in a splotchy look that I rather liked so I decided to run with it. The elephant stamp is from Adorable Elephants, as is the sentiment and balloon. I water colored the large die cut heart using Tumbled Glass distress ink. The elephant was colored with Pumice Stone distress ink and the balloon with Worn Lipstick distress ink. I embossed the balloon and sentiment using Liquid Platinum embossing powder, and added glossy accents on top of the balloon. I finished the card with some clear Pretty Pink Posh sequins.
That's all for today, thanks for stopping by!
