HAPPY NEW YEAR! Ooops! I am getting ahead of myself! Happy Saturday! Did you have a nice Christmas? I hope you enjoyed some quiet moments in all the hubub. Ours was different but it was nice. Lots of good memories.
You might have guessed from my opening sentence that Speedy Fox and Friends Challenge this week is to create a NEW YEAR's project!
I stamped Pocket Watches and heat embossed. I gave the tag some added color by stamping TH Distress Ink - Mustard Seed and Wild Honey on my craft mat and spritzed with water, then I dragged the tag through the wet ink. I didn't care for the shiny blue watches so I decided to see what would happen if I added Gesso. I liked the softened look the Gesso provided and added "glass beads" randomly to the tag and flowers. My sentiment was computer generated.
I will be back again before the New Year but in case you can't stop by I would like to say, Thank You so much for stopping by my blog and leaving your kind comments this year!!! You inspire me and I treasure the friendships that have developed over the year! I can't wait to see what 2014 holds for us!
This is just a gorgeous creation with a wonderful vintage flair to it. Love the fresh yellow and blue colouring.

Mixed media strikes again and to very good effect! The colours remind me that spring isn't far away and we will soon be seeing daffodils again. Happy in-between weekend!

ReplyDeleteSo beautiful and elegant - and I love the blues and your layout.
what a super great card. i love the application of the gesso over the blue. i can see how that would tone it down. this is a wonderful technique you used for this and really gives the feeling of the old and new.
