My DD had her knee surgery today. All went well! You should see the screws they took out of her knee! Yikes! They were huge! Her BF told her to ask for them so they could hang stuff on them in the garage. So she did.....and they obliged.
Today's challenge was to use hearts or at least something red. This worked perfectly for a card to my DD. I made the bg by stamping my snowshoes wheel stamp from Clear Dollar Stamps, coloring with re-inkers, versa marking and clear eb. Then I sponged the ruby red over top. Oh yeah, before starting I put a heart mask in the middle.
In the middle I stamped my little bear from the spring critters set of Clear Dollar Stamps, shading around the edges. On another piece of white cs, I stamped the bear, versa marked and clear eb it. Then I colored him with w/c pencils. I put a band aid on his knee to show sympathy for my DD. LOL Versa marked the whole image, clear eb and cut it out. Popped it up over the other one. Added a few tiny white punched hearts that I doodled and sponged edges.
Shaded and doodled the inside edges of the masked heart. Stamped, versa marked and clear eb extra snowshoes on white cs, colored with re-inkers. Cut out, glued together to form a heart, popped up on panel. Added doodled lines for the strings.
Put my image panel on a white card sponged caramel doodling the edges. Well, hope you and my DD like this.....sorry it is so late......TFL :0)
