This is for my friend Bev's fabulous DTGD challenge! You'll need to be a Fan Club member to get all the dirt but that's easy... Fan Club info. And we have a special Dare to Get Dirty Challenge Gallery 2013 this year, so be sure to upload your creations there instead of the Member Gallery. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
For my card, I had a polished stone background I made forever ago and the colors really said "southwest" to me. So I left the background as is and black embossed the pottery on another section of the same background. I used a white gel pen to add a few accents and then fussy cut them. The turquoise square was die cut then I used a small border punch around the edges and also on the narrow turquoise strip. The dusty durango piece was embossed multiple times using a border folder.
I thought it needed a little something so I used my Copics to color three white brads. Instead of doing them in a solid color, I used the tip of the markers to add a little swirl pattern.
Thanks so much for looking and I hope you'll come play in the dirt with us! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.
