Art From The Heart!

AFTHa

I have been doing a lot of stamping and cutting out today and as much as I love grunge paper ... both the texture and the smell ... stamping it and then cutting out lots of images ... well it can be a bit ... erm ... grey!

Anyways I thought I would have a little break and I AFTH decided to have a quick play with a tag.

All of the stamps on this tag come from Wendy Vecchi sheet 3 Art from The Heart! Is n't that flower just adorable?

I also use Lord T!m's mask and a few of his Idea-ology paper clips together with Ranger distress stickles.

The inks used are distress inks in Brushed Corduroy, Fired Brick, Broken china , Vintage photo and Pine needles.

The embossing powder is Chinese red from Heat it up and the ribbon is Maya Road.

Better get back to the cutting out! ... Enjoy your evenings ... whatever you are doing!

Hi Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog.

I am blown away with your work, it's what totally different from anything I make but it's what I aspire too.

I am very very jealous of you and Tim Holtz, I too have a picture of him taken at NEC earlier this year, but alas he was unaware of my presence!

I am working my way through all your "Sights to See" as I am hoping they will reflect your taste and work.

I love grungeboard, but keep forgetting I've got it!! LOL
Mmm don't like the feel of it though, I hate that suede feeling..!!

This is another stunning creation and so inventive..
