2012 Artisan Award Winner Blog Hop - Project 1

Welcome to the official 2012 Artisan Design Team Blog Hop!  Today is the first day of the hop.  If you are joining me from Heather Summers Blog, welcome! Isn't her work amazing?  
 I hope you will continue to check back with me for the next ten days.  You will be able to see 5 cards, 3 scrapbook pages and 2 three dimensional items from each member of the design team.  This is a group of very talented stampers, so you don't want to miss a post!   


 Here is my first card.  The colors are a combo of Soft Suede, Marina Mist, Very Vanilla, Basic Black, and Crumb Cake. I used a rubbing alcohol and shimmer paint combo to spritz the flower, scrunched it up and let it dry.  The alcohol "tightens" the fibers in the paper causing it to "harden"  
 Below is a close up of some of the details.  


So want to see what's next?  Check out Jane Lee's Blog next!

See you all tomorrow!
