I love playing around in my stamp room. After reading Susie Austraila's description on her card, thought I would try using some of this stuff I buy, namely the Gesso. After I played around, then I watched the tutorials! LOL So am using this wrong. But this is what I did: I mixed the Richrazzleberry re-inker with some Gesso, then smothed it over a stencil. This morning, when it was dry, I put another brass stencil (remember those, have lots of them never even opened!) and sponged Rich Razzleberry over it. So then, I didn't know what to do with it but cut the white and mounted it on a Rich Razleberry base, and but a ribbon and bow on, and then stamped the two sentiments, which were wood mounted with no company name on them. So I am submitting this for the Twisted Sister Challenge to do a Valentine, (a day late) and for the Mixbility Challenge to pick one color (Rich Razzleberry), and for the USEIT15 Challenge to use something neglected or not used before (the brass stencil), and finally for the Free 4 All Visual Inspiration Challenge. I was inspired by the texture of those candy hearts, that is why I begin thinking about the Gesso! That's it! Have a great week-end TFL

Wow. Anyone who gets this lovely creation is going to be one very lucky Valentine! It's very, very pretty, and makes me feel the urge to bust out my neglected Razzleberry CS, ink and ribbon. TFS
