Bloggy Beginnings

I've been contemplating a blog for some time now, mostly to share my creative endeavours, connect with other crafty souls and maybe enter in a challenge or two.  I'd like to share my most recent make for a dog loving co-worker.  She spotted a little ATC on my desk and was so thrilled.  I love to make things for 'fans' so I went home and made this little gem.

The background is a mixture of acrylic paint and distressed ink.  Once dried, I stamped and embossed the white rectangles and stamped a few random word stamps in black. Then I added a bit of washi tape and the sentiment.  But the star of the show is that sweet dog image, coloured with alcohol markers and a little bling on the collar.  The image is a Tim Holtz stamp.  Finished it off with some black distressed ink along the edges and some white splattered paint.

Thanks for stopping in,
Cyn
