Mojo Monday Challenge #139



This is my version for the Mojo Monday (139) Challenge for this week. The stamps that I used are all from Hero Arts. The following stamps used in this project are: Small Liquid Amber E2252 (leaf), Old Letter Writing (S4878), and Cleardesign: Cupcakes (CL153--Happy Birthday). I destressed the main image with tea dye destressing ink and then I stamped the leaf in olive archival ink by Ranger. Then I masked the leaf and stamped over the masked image with the old letter writing stamp in vandyke brown (also by Ranger). Instead of using a ribbon on the middle of the card, I took a scrap piece of muslin fabric and stained it with bundled sage destress ink and frayed the edges. This was a fun sketch to work with and I had a very good time creating this project. Thanks for looking.
