A large lonely heart....cut with the Silhouette to make a stencil. Placed the stencil on a white card, angled so that a piece of the heart is missing. Sponged Ranger Distress Inks ( a lot) on the card and used a black pen to outline the heart. Stamped the sentiment and I was done.
MOOD WHEN DONE = Pretty good
I'm enjoying starting a new year with less stuff. It's tricky. Too few supplies and I'm looking to buy. Too much and it stifles creativity, costs too much, and takes up space I need for other things. Always looking for that balance!
Love this Joan - it's so artsy and so much thought has gone into that heart and its emptiness. Just perfect!!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Love the sketchy outline and the flow of colors.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Joan B! What a wonderful vibrant heart - super color - love the outline - I really need to clean out my space as well - I have SO much stuff that I will never use (thought I really needed it when I bought it - but no - I apparently didn't!)
ReplyDeleteYou are not alone! Love your heart (the one on the card, too ;) ).
ReplyDeleteFabulous wielding of the sponge, Joan! LOVE that bright color and the outlining and the placement of the heart.
ReplyDeleteCute card, Joan! How do you get rid of your stuff - do you have any advice to share? I have been really good this year (2 kids in college - lack of disposable income helps!) about using consumables I already have, but I have not found a way to get rid of old stamps.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous - it looks like it's glowing with warmth!
