"Lucky You"
I stamped the cat on the oval, then I stamped just the coin and embossed with gold EP. I stamped the paw once more, cut it out and glued it on top of coin.
I used the Mix-ability challenge at SCS to blow media around the page. I started with blowing water color and Lemon Drop reinker. When it was dry I placed drywall tape down and sponged Fired Brick Distress ink. At this point I found that I liked the look better vertically than horizontally. I stamped the time piece image randomly, added a bit of gesso in the middle and vintage photo on the edges and with that I unfortunately obscured my opening process of blown watercolor and ink!!
The film strip is from "Now Showing". I stamped on vellum then brushed color on the strip with lemon drop dye ink reinker and red water color.
Thanks for looking and I hope to see you all this week as I share new releases with a chance to win a stamp set!
