Bling, Bling!

Yeppers...lotsa glitter on this gal!

This is the Goldie Stamp from the Loralie Art Stamps that we carry in the store.





CARD RECIPE:
Stamped with Memento Ink on Detail Blending Paper. Used my Copics to color her in...using variations of pink and purple to make the stripes in her overalls. Added opaque white highlights, and some of my AtYou Spica Glitter pens on areas of the flower basked and overalls.

For the card base, I used Autumn Hay Petallics paper, which I stamped with the flower accent stamp that comes with Goldie. I stamped in a variety of reds and orange colors. I then heat set it, just to make sure it didn't smear. I then used my 1/2" Scor Tape, and put a strip of tape, then covered it with glitter. Then repeated this process, using various colors of glitter (light pink, dark pink, and light green.)

I then put small strips of the heart pattern paper from the Pastiche line by SEI. I had the little critter gems from my stash of Joann's embellishments, and the ribbon is one I picked up for a buck at hobby lobby. I used my bow template to make the bow!

Because I used glitter across the whole front of the page, I used the Scor tape to tack the gems, ribbon and stamped image down...as I needed it to be aggressive enough to stick to the glitter strips.

It turned out really cute...and has a LOT of bling!
