Sunday Stamper - red,green and gold

I created my skinny for this challenge using masks, adirondack dye inks and a stamp (sorry haven't got the name of it) I finished my skinny by using gold krylon round the edges. and added my corner swirls before shaving beeswax on to it and heating it with gun - it gives a lovely texture too it although you can't see it so much on the scan.

Simply Skinnies - Party

The little girl in my image doesn't look much like partying - maybe by adding her crown she will!!! The background for my skinny was created by dabbing bleach on to dark card stock then heating it (stings your eyes a bit though!!)I then drew some squiggles on with a mapping pen. My main image was printed on to Safmat and enclosed in a chipboard frame inked with Versamagic Night Sky. The crown is a Tim Holtz grungebaord to which I added gold rub n buff. My lettering is simply rub ons.
