The image is stamped on textured paper (similar to a rough watercolor paper) in black stazon ink. I used Ranger Distress inks in Worn Lipstick, Fired Brick, Faded Jeans, Brushed Corduroy, Antique Linen, and Vintage Photo to create the sunset sky. The DP is a sheet from Cosmo Cricket, from their Love Notes line (2006). I loved that line, and still have a few sheets in my stash.
I used a chipboard star, inked with Vintage Photo, and some twine for added detail, and spritzed the entire project with Pearl Glimmer Mist and Silver Craft Spray Glitter.

So serene, Anna. The warmth practically radiates from the page. I LOVE your rustic chipboard star--you have a wonderful touch with those rustic embellishments. I think this pink touch could convert even the "manliest" (meaning NO pink NOHOW!!) of men!!!

Anna, thank you so much for providing such a perfect sample for my challenge! I love the silhouette image, and the sunset on that textured paper looks almost like a worn canvas print. And... looks like I need to add a tracing wheel to my 'need' list! Hugs.....
