We are very excited to announce that we are now sponsored by Sweet Pea Stamps. One lucky person will be picked at random each week as the winner of a Sweet Pea image from Sweet Pea Stamps .
This weeks prize is ©ching-chou kuik's Puppet Angel in the Circus
Each month we will also have a "Card of the Month" and this person will win three Sweet Pea Stamp images.
This week we challenge you to include Acetate on your project, something I very seldom use so had to get the old grey matter working for this one.
I stamped onto acetate with Stazon then turned it over and added Art Institute glue and glitter to her dress and glamour dust to wings, light touches to her hair and sun/moon.
I then stamped again with Memento ink onto card and coloured her hair, skin, sun/moon with Copics - sorry forgot to take piccie of this part - then I chalked the background.
Once all glues were dry I then added more Art Institute glue onto the already glittered parts and carefully aligned the acetate onto the card and left once again to dry. I then trimmed the finished image and matted onto navy blue card from stock.
