I have wanted to do something with this stamp for awhile. I colored it with chalk pencils. Then it smeared. The hints that came with the chalks say to take a piece of tissue paper and rub quite firmly with the back of a spoon. I did, but I didn’t get all the excess chalk and it looked dirty. My next step was to take gold Pearl X and go over the image. That helped some but I still wasn’t satisfied, so I took a 2 way glue pen from Stampin’ Up and highlighted a few areas and then put on Stampin’ Up Diamond Dust. I walked away and decided to come back to it later. I finished it up this evening. Cardstock is white, Pansy Purple, Sunflower and Sweet Leaf. Except for the white all is textured. Dew Drops are in each corner.
It was a beautiful sunny day today but with a very cold wind. I’m glad I have no plans to go anywhere tomorrow as the weather is going to be downright nasty with rain and that “S” word in the forecast. Anyway I have plenty to keep me busy trying to get ready to leave on Sunday. I still have to make a graduation card with a cosmetology theme and a baby card. JoAnn’s didn’t have any embellishments for cosmetology so guess I will go on line and see what I can find.
