I started this for the TLC yesterday, but left the Stickles drying overnight and finished it off today.
A2 cream base, sponged with Walnut Stain and stamped with Symphony, also in Walnut Stain.
Pink panel was the TLC, to dry emboss a piece of card and then heat emboss it. I used the Provocraft Paisley folder, and Iridescent Ice for my heat embossing.
Tag is a Sizzix die, stamped with Symphony in Walnut Stain and sponged with Old paper. I distressed the edges a bit and sponged with Walnut Stain. I added Stickles to the dragonfly and flower in the bottom corner. Today I added some layered Primas with a brad and pearl in the centre, and a Spellbinders swirly piece for foliage (Fanciful Holidays). Sentiment was computer generated, cut and layered with oval punches (base oval stamped with Symphony again . Just the sentiment oval has Rock Candy crackle paint on it. I added a bunch of fibres to the tag, and to finish off, as I had no suitable charm, I stamped the bird from Carte Postale, embossed with silver EP and cut it out.
Not my style, but I am happy with how it turned out. I think, though, I'll print the sentiment again using brown rather than black - it's the only black on the card and doesn't look quite right.
