Congrats to Kelly! Where would we be w/o her infamous Naughty List? I chose Granny Smith for my case. I took her layout and flipped it on its side. I kept some of the blues and greens but changed mine to seascape, moved the ribbon and buttons and left off the distressing.
This is also a sneak peak for Innovative Stamp Creations and I'm using the new July release, Picturesque.
My seascape is stamped w/ cobalt ink onto vanilla c/s then water colored w/ markers and a water brush. I cut it out using the Out of the Box Nestie technique (tutorial HERE). It's attached to a piece of navy dp. The green layer was stamped w/ a canvas bg image (ISC) and green ink. These are attached to a layer of dp.
The sentiment was stamped on one end of a long strip. A button was glued to other end and small ghost shape was attached on top of the greeting. A butterfly ghost shape was first heated slightly and bent so the wings would stand up and attached to the plant. A clear Glaze pen was used on the water and also on the centers of the dots around the dp border.
Thanks so much for looking!
