April SOTM Blog Hop - Message in A Bottle

    

    

This month I am following {Melissa Robinson's blog, My Heartfelt Sentiments}   We have 12 Close to My Heart Consultants participating in this month’s Stamp of the Month Blog Hop. If you lose your place while traveling through our blog hop, the complete list of participants can be found here.  

The April Stamp of the Month is entitled Message in a Bottle  (S2204) (Set of  21).   Here is a picture of this stamp set:

  

Such a pretty stamp set.  It just begged to be colored in with our TriBlend Markers.  I wanted each of my bottles to be a different color like some of the old bottles I have seen in thrift stores.

Here is my card:

I stamped the 3 bottles and their contents with Intense Black Ink.  Here are the Markers I used:  Ice Grey Blend; Ice Grey Shades; Vintage Blue; Pale Pink Blend; Pale Pink Shades; Citrus Green Blend; Fair Skin Blend; Gold Brown Blend; Earth Brown Blend; and the Blender Pen.

I "washed" the background with our Gold Shimmer Brush.  It makes it very sparkly.  I colored the stars in the middle bottle with the Sundance Shimmer Brush and the circle in that same bottle with the Raspberry Shimmer Brush.  I also added Platinum Stickles to that middle bottle.

The corks are stamped with Toffee Ink, and the table grain is added with our Black Journaling Pen.

I used the black word patterned paper from our March-April Mix In Paper Pack.
