A messy thanks

Hello ~
I had to play a bit before heading to bed...

My inspiration comes from three challenges - Style from Addicted to stamps and more - Clean and Simple, colors Altenew's February 2019 Challenge, and Embossing from Just Add Ink.



Stamp is Leafy Canopy from Altenew, white heat embossed and colored with Zig markers on bristol paper.  Its not my normal, but I had fun playing with a messy look. Gold and black spits and spatters were added in the end.  The panel was mounted on a light gray card base.

   

 Thanks so very much for stopping by.

I love this, it works so well and I can see how using a different coloured base can make a big difference xx
