So Suzy - Swirly Heart

 Hi Everyone,

I am back today with another card I made with those wonderful sentiment stamps So Suzy carries. this one is by Audrey Hepburn and goes along perfectly with the Swirly Heart stamp:


I masked a diagonal strip on my card base and sponged with distress inks. 

Used my Misti and stamped the swirly heart in white pigment ink



And then moved the card just a smidgen and over stamped with black ink



So you get a thin white outline and a deep black shadow.


Stamped the sentiment:



Hope you liked this!

What a vibrant and beautiful background and wow that stamp is fantastic in the black against it. Thank you for the tip on the pigment ink and the shadow effect. Stunning card!

This is beautiful!! I LOVE that diagonal distress ink feature. Makes the black POP right off the card. Really lovely design.

Hmmm, ich sehe schon, ich muss mir wirklich bald einen MISTI kaufen... Coole Technik und Layout! Schöne Farben!

Absolutely gorgeous.

Oh that is lovely. That's what the MISTI is good for - positioning where you want it. I love the brightness of the background with the starkness of the black. Xx

Wow! Audrey was one of may favorite actresses and I love this quote. Beautiful swirls over that vibrant strip of color. Love this ghosting technique...it adds such depth to a simple card.

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
