Love Tim's new Wildflower thinlits dies! I cut this one from watercolor cardstock then colored with Twinkling H20s. The blue cardstock layer was run through the Cracked Texture Fade and a Sizzix Gold Transfer Sheet. Such a fun look and cleaner than applying paint or ink to the folder. The Stitched Oval was cut from off-white cardstock then covered with Crazed Collage Medium. I smeared the Antique Linen distress ink pad over it to make the minute crazing areas more visible. With a gold pen I drew in the zig zag stitches. Another layer of cardstock was edged with a gold paint dabber then Rock Candy distress glitter was sprinkled over the wet paint. The mini bow die was cut from more watercolor cardstock and colored with blue ink. Ditto for the recipient's Alphanumeric initial. Both were edged with a gold pen.What I make with my hands comes from my heart. I'll try my hand using any art medium. Paper and fabric are my canvas; ink, paint and fibers my coloring agents. From trash to treasure I'll figure out a way to use it somehow someway someday.
