This was so much fun to make, thank you Karen for the great inspiration each week. See the photo we played from here.
I played off color twinkles and did a shameless case of the image! Some weeks a case just has to be done for this great challenge!
-I colored the image with re inkers and artist brush.
-The flowers and leaves are stamped cut out and glued to the image. The sorta swirls were actually from a swirl punch and cut to the correct size.
-If you look real close you will see the twinkles on the black are full of sparkle; I die cut them from an old Christmas card and glued them in place.
-ticket corner is done with the slit punch, maybe someday IÂ’ll buy that punch but by then itÂ’ll probably be out of style, not that I follow style!
-Tool distressing is done on the green and red panel and ink distressing with red is done on the yellow layer.
-The red panel is mounted on foam squares.
-A black gel pen was used for lines on the moon, I first did them in pencil, colored the image andused the gel pen last so it wouldn't run while watercoloring.
