SHOPPING OUR STASH #351 - Mythical and Magical


Happy Tuesday and welcome!
This week, we have another fun challenge starting today at
It's all about mythical and magical creatures!
Let's see those faeries, gnomes, dragons, unicorns, etc!

 Here's my card:


and the inside:

 Using another background panel I made a year, maybe two years ago.
It's really hard to see, as 1) it's very light and 2) my crack photography
skillz suck. I smooshed some inks directly onto an embossing folder,
spritzed with water, and covered it with some water color paper. You
can kind of see the pattern if you squint your eyes and look sideways at it. LOL!

Layered some die cuts, stamped (at least 6 times) with my MISTI to get 
 good coverage, (still had to dot here and there with a black marker to fill
in white spots. The trials and tribulations of stamping on water color paper.)
 The faerie wings were winked, then I added some rhinestones
for a bit more sparkle.

I hope you find some time this week to play along at our challenge at
Shopping Our Stash! We'd love to see what you create!
Thanks for visiting, and I hope you have a magical day!

  5. Oh, I see the background! Very cool! I'm grateful that I read you Mistied that 6x... the one reason I was gonna get a stamping platform was for watercolor paper... but I think I'll save my $30 for another time! LOL! But yours looks awesome! (I am not a patient person)...
