Thriving Art

Week two of the TAG challenge over at the Cheerful Stamp Pad starts today!!  Here is my tag for this week featuring a lovely image from Lunagirl Digital Images .  I loved the regal look she has, I did remove the frame around her.  I printed her twice and did a stack of the bust of the woman with pop dots.  I also added Pearl-EX to the background and to her cheeks, sorry the photo doesn't show it well.  The stamped sentiment is from Hampton Arts and the gold embossed images are from Friskers.  This is all added to a large paint chip from Home Depot, and the color is Firecracker!  I bet she was at one time too.  Black lace, pearls and a ribbon were the finishing touches. Still time to join the challenge! Inky Hugs Krisha

New challenge is up over at Cheerful Stamp Pad: TAGS !  For the next two weeks the challenge is TAGS!  How fun is that??  Our sponsor is Lunagirl Digital Images  for both weeks.  You don't have to use their images but it would be great if you did.........just saying. I chose this very cool, autumn looking frame for my rather LARGE tag!  I generated the frame 3 times, working with Print Shop.  Then added my letters before printing and cutting them out.  I hand shaded the letters for a little depth.  Then I got inky with the tag, stencils and gesso were used too.  When I added the frames I mounted them with pop dots.  I added some gold embellishments along the edges, and yarn for the tie. There is a lot of time for this challenge so what are YOU waiting for?? Inky Hugs Krisha
