Sweet Pea Stampers - Monday 26/7/10

Here is another week for the Sweet Pea Stampers.  This week the topic is "anything goes".

I chose to use this image and stamped with Versafine, embossed with clear embossing powder and out came my Lyra Watercolour crayons.  The second image I stamped with a red Memento ink pad onto some cream card.  Both images have had Tim Holtz's Tattered Rose and Fired Brick around the edges.  The backing paper has been made with these two inks and using cut-and-dry foam they have covered the white card and some blobs of replacement tattered Rose ink in places on the paper.  I then sprayed the backing paper all over and then sprinkled on some table salt and then heat set it.  Then I rubbed off the salt to leave speckled areas.  The images I cut out with a Nellie Snellon die and the large image I weaved in-and-out some pink ribbon which was still hard as my tapestry needle is being a bit elusive still!!!  The card is finished off with some pink raffia ribbon, burgundy organza ribbon, some gem flowers, a pink crystal attached with a jump ring and a sentiment off the computer.  It's certainly a brighter card than I normally do but the recipient is a teenager.
