For the love of creating and the joy it brings through various forms of art.

| I cut four pieces of Specialty Stamping Paper, into 2x2.5 inches. I stamped the eye images in each of the four colors in the Ink Palette, and dried them with a heat tool. Then I stamped the eye image on a piece of scrap and cut it out to use as a mask. I masked off each eye, and stamped the Newsprint image over each eye using the same color inks as on each eye. Then I dried. |
 |
| I mounted each eye onto coordinating colors of cardstock. Then I foam taped those onto a blue cardstock base. |
 |
| For the base of the card, I cut more Specialty Stamping Paper. I laid the palette onto the craft sheet and rubbed all the ink colors onto it. Then I misted the inks with alcohol, since they are Archival based, alcohol allows them to move. I placed the card into the wet inks and rubbed it around to lift up the colors. |
 |
| Once dried, I stamped the Floret image over the card with Black Soot Archival from the palette, and dried it. |
 |
| I rubbed the blue Distress Crayon into the recessed areas of the quote band, and remove the excess with a rag so that the crayon stayed inside to bring out the wording more. I also used the crayon to watercolor in the eyes, before adding Glossy Accents to them. I attached the linen ribbon to the quote band and card, and then mounted the card on the base piece. Finally, I adhered the nailheads on. |
