Now for my card. The finished size measures 4 1/4" square. The angel was stamped with Stazon Black on white cardstock, cut out and sponged with Pomegranate and Sky inks. The background was created by using a no porous craft mat and smearing Tim Holtz Distress inks in Faded Jeans & Aged Mahogany on the mat, misting the ink before placing white cardstock directly in it. I dried it with a heat gun and then stamped the flourishes in Pomegranate and the How do I love thee script in black that was stamped off twice on scrap paper. The mulberry paper strip was white that I DTP'd with pomegranate ink, misted with shimmer mist and dried with a heat tool as well. After assembling the background layer, mulberry strip and angel, the layers were misted again for added shimmer. The buttons are vintage and threaded with metallic fibers. I will post again later or tomorrow on how to make you own shimmer mist. The Dream sentiment was added after I took my supply photo. It is part of a long sentiment that says "believe in your dreams" I used a marker to select the part I wanted to use. It is an image from the Rubbernecker category and I will email Dave and make sure the image gets added to the website.
