Color Throwdown #27 Happy Birthday and Kick Up Your Heels!



I'm a week late with the Color Throwdown #27; had the card done, but the "photographer" (DH) had to find time to take a pic. It's not often that I participate in challenges for various reasons, but I couldn't resist using this new image from the

Hero Arts High Heels set with a Rubbernecker Travel collage bg. The main image was sponged with distress inks after being colored with copics. It was added to the bg paper with dimensionals. The red embossed circles were cut in half and adhered to the back of the main image. The inside sentiment (see pic below) was stamped, distressed, adhered to a black frame and finished off with a red paper flower for some oomph :-)





Recipe:

Stamps: Hero Arts High Heels, Rubbernecker Travel Collage

Paper: White and Pure Poppy (PTI), basic black and blue (SU!)

Inks: Memento Black Tuxedo, Ranger Distress Inks

Accessories: Copics, Pure Poppy ribbon (PTI), Mike's bling, CB ef, Nesties, paper flower, and Shimmerz

Hi Gigi! you asked about the frame.
It´s cut out with my Cuttlebug, the Cuttlebug dies is called "Vintage" and there are 4 dies in the package. GREAT BUY! I´ll mail you when I feel better, sick right now.(boring) Hugs!
