When I saw the challenge today, I thought surely I have marbles some place in this house other than in my head! lol But the only thing I could come up with was a pony tail holder with two marble type balls on it. SO I cut off the elastic part and used the round balls. What fun!.................details......
Made my bg first, just to be sure I could do it. I rolled the balls in three different colors of re-inkers. Then I thought, why not try versa mark refill. So I did, and then I clear eb it. Wasn't quite happy with it yet, so I ran it through the cb. After that I sponged on some more color. Now I started to like it.
Stamped my image twice, colored with re-inkers. Masked one and sponged bashful blue around. Cut out parts of the other one popping them up on the first one. Doodled the edges then layered it on two squares that I had sponged the edges.
Put my bg panel on a white card that I sponged the edges with caramel. Popped up my layered image panel and added a dew drop to cover an "oopsie". Oh Well...........hope you like it..........TFL :0)
