Moving along with the Times....discover you!

I love it when I am asked to sponsor a blog or a competition, as it means I get to use someone else's creativity :))), and can play along with the challenge or competition, and Moving Along with the Times is no exception. All you have to do to win some stamps from The Artistic Stamper is join in !! Simple! Easy peasy! I used a postcard as the base for the sketch, and used some of the girls paperie die cuts as a base, colouring them with Spun Sugar, Wild Honey and Crushed Olive, a great combination of distress ink colours. If you have problems with the spun sugar use it direct to paper, it works a treat! I sprinkled water on them and heat dried it giving a antiqued look. The stamps are stamped in wild Honey. The words are also from the girls paperie, and I love these as you can make up great sayings. The scan really didn't do the words justice, as the rock candy crackle paint reflected off the light :(
A small piece of acetate was sandwiched between the girls face and the frame to make it look like a mirror. And , of course , what card is not complete without a grungepaper rose :)
Please pop along to Moving along with the Times, and have a go.. the girls would love to see you!
Have a happy day creating!
