MY WORD IS COLORED PENCIL
For today’s releases I used some premade fold-over cards from Hampton Arts (available at big box craft stores—very inexpensive).  I saw them and thought it would be fun to bump them up a few notches! 
Same layout—different stamps—a lot of fun!

Notes: The pattern on the left was colored with various tones of grey colored pencils.  I highlighted some of the areas with Stickles glitter glue and Diamond Glaze.  The “fluff” on the dandelions was highlighted with Stickles, as well.
Materials:
Stamp: Dandelions (SKU: 540-2) from Rubbernecker Stamp Company;
Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Ink-Black Soot;
Paper: Hampton Arts “Ditto Fold Over Card”; Black Cardstock;
Accessories: Stickles Glitter Glue; Thickers letter stickers; Judikins Diamond Glaze, Felt flower, glitter brad; corner rounder punch;

prayers faith
Notes: The card came with the printed dots on the left, I highlighted them with Stickles.  I mimicked the dots onto the gold side by dotting some acrylic paint then highlighting the dots with Stickles. I didn’t have a brad that matched the paper so I also use the acrylic paint on the brad.

    How could you NOT love this sweet little girl??

    She is stamped with StazOn Jet Black ink onto off white colored cardstock.

    I colored her with colored pencils.

    I mounted the image with foam tape to a piece of designer paper, and that was mounted to a die cut scalloped rectangle.

    All of the edges were inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink Antique Linen.  The darker papers were also inked with Frayed Burlap ink as well.

    The lace (May Arts) was attached to the corners with 3M Quick Dry glue.

    The sentiment (from Set #559) is mounted with foam tape.

    Be sure and check out the Rubbernecker Blog for today’s design team participants. And you definitely wont want to miss our release blog hop tomorrow.

    Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today!

    I stamped the heart image with pigment ink and heat embossed the image with white embossing powder.  I sponged on “spun sugar” ink  on the image.  Then I masked the inner heart and then sponged “victorian velvet” ink.  The sentiment was stamped with vintage photo.
    The edges of all the papers were inked.  Foam tape between the layers—with a bow on top.
