Happy Monday
and
Pink Elephant Day!
This week is a theme challenge:
Happy Valentine's Day
We are down to the wire for completing all those Valentine cards and projects!
Here is my inspirational card:
SPIES:
STAMPS: Image (My Favorite Things); Sentiment (Taylored Expressions).
PAPER: Fushcia, white cardstock; DP - homemade patterned paper.
INK: Lady Rose (Memento); Copics.
EXTRAS: Heart punch (EK Success); Label (Taylored Expressions); Plastic heart stickers; pink heart gems.
I did some paper piecing again. I pieced the dress on the image with the same patterned paper as the foreground paper. Last week I tried a new technique --- the shaving cream technique. I love the results I got! I got about four small rectangles and about four small tags out of it! I used rainbow colors and so I had a great piece with lots of reds and pinks. If you haven't tried this technique before, you can see a tutorial here.
For Following Challenges:
So stop by The Pink Elephant Challenge, check out the other DT projects, leave them some blog luv and then share your Valentines with us!
Valentine Blessings!
