Circles

Hello crafters!

This week WE ARE GOING AROUND IN CIRCLES

As you may know the Simon Says Stamp Store 

is open again offering the $25 voucher for this challenge.

It's been some time I haven't used this background stamp

and I almost forgot how much I liked it. I love circles. 

There are my fave geometric shapes.
I stayed with some earth tones on my card combining

browns, yellows and beige. 

The leave was cut from the Large Stems Bigz, 

covered randomly with gesso and crackle paste, colored 

with Distres Oxide Sprays and touched with golden embosing.

The background was stamped with embossing ink and heat embossed in white, then colored with Distress Oxides.

Hearts

Hi there! I definitely love tags and colors from some time. 

Maybe it's a natural need for colors in this dark times...

Anyway, I had so much fun with this tag and hope it will

inspire you to try out some vibrancy on your projects. 

I covered the tag with Distress Oxide Antique Linen ink + water. 

Stamped the hearts from Accessorize set with brown Archival. 

Started to color the hearts and highlighted them using oil pastels 

of similar colors. 

Finally I played a bit with the shading using Distres Oxide 

Walnut Stain ink and a water brush. 

In the end I sprinkled the whole tag with white paint.
