Well where are the weeks going?,we are now onto challenge 17 at Dare U 2 Digi Stamp and this week we have a lovely sketch for you to follow by one of the DT Larissa,thank you Larissa a dream to work with!For my card i've used the "Heart Of Hearts" image by Chris(Sketching Stamper) which can be purchased along with so many other digi images HERE.I printed the image off and coloured it completly with distress ink "Antique Linen"and then used a Cosmic Shimmer Mist "Rich Gold"sprayed lightly over the top,not showing too good in the photo but lovely and shimmery IRL,i've done the same to the sentiment after printing it off on the computer using "Chocolate Box" font.
For the centre panel of the card i've used some handmade paper which also as a slight shimmer and sparkle to it,again not showing up too good in photo,over the top i've used acetate which i printed the heart of hearts image onto,i firstly reduced the image size and then tiled it to give me an all over pattern,i've then added black dew drops to sort of seperate the hearts.
I wanted to finish off with metal corners,but do you think i could find them,so had to us peel-offs which i added tiny pearls to each of the corner ends.Peel-offs i can hear you saying...yes i know i haven't used any since i first started card making,but to be honest i don't think they look that bad!
Everything else ribbon,faceted hearts and gems from stash.
Well thats all folks,hope you will come and join us again for this weeks dare and thanks to all who joined in last week!
Take care

WOW San, your card is so beautiful! 10 out of 10 for creativity with the image, you never cease to amaze me with your ideas, I wish I'd thought to do the tiling, it looks wonderful. The handmade paper behind the acetate makes it very rich looking and perfect with the bigger glimmer misted heart. Everything is so elegant and a stunning interpretation of the sketch. Hope you're having a good weekend. Chris xx
