Thank You ....

Hello everyone just a quickie post to share my "Thank You" project which ties in with this weeks theme over at Simon Says Stamp & Show and the latest monthly challenge over at the Inspiration Journal Blog where the challenge is to create a little something for a guest at Thanksgiving.


I started out by covering a heart from Studio 490 Hearts, Love & Stars Art Part Set with Distress Inks (Forest Moss, Crushed Olive, Wild Honey, Ripe Persimmon & Walnut Stain).


Using Archival Ink (Jet Black) I then stamped the chicken wire image from the Studio 490 Art For You Stamp Set.


I have used the following Tim Holtz Sizzix Alterations Dies (Mini Tattered Leaves Set, Mini Labels Set, Holly Branch & Regal Crest) on cardstock and Studio 490 Clearly For Art.


The typewriter key font is from the Prima Romance Novel Stamp Set. Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment, great to know you have been here.

Until next time stay inky! x

Gillian...your autumnal heart is just beautiful! I love everything about it. The honeycomb on the heart itself is such a cool pattern. Then I totally love the leaves that you've colored and mottled so cool. They really do look like fallen leaves you've picked up added to your piece. I also wanted to thank you for your very nice comment you left on my blog. Thanks for sharing your art with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy

Hi Gillian
I love this heart tag as it is nice to have a different shape.
The colours you have used go so well together and the finished project is stunning.
