I got this stamp about 6 months ago and I've been having fun figuring out different ways to use it. I started by applying gelatos to some mixed media paper, then used distress oxide inks thru a stencil to create my bg. I stamped the face in versamark and gold embossed. I also colored in her eyes and mouth with gelatos. I made the frame and added doodling with a white pen. To complete the card I added gold and off white liquid pearls to the cardstock.

This is just so creative and unique, Polly, and I would have recognized it as yours even without your name attached! That background and your coloring in of her eyes and lips are outstanding. Love your doodled frame and pearly dots.

Your background for this face is awesome! I would never have thought to do that type of background with this. Your framing, as everyone says, is wonderfully doodled! Love the entire card!
