MAC #3


MAC = Making Art Challenge.  This is a challenge happening on the Everything Wendy Vecchi Yahoo Group and we are on #3.  The challenges are bases on projects in Wendy Vecchi's fabulous books (can hardly wait for book #4 to be available).  This week we are to use a heart and some junk jewelry.

I used a Maya Road chipboard heart for my base.  The junk jewelry is the white flower in the center of the grunge flower.  It was an old clip earring (can't remember where I got it or found it)... I sprayed it with Perfect Pearls Mist sunflower sparkle which looks Fantastic!!!  All stamps used on this piece are Studio 490.  The lace was stamped with Adirondack pigment snow cap and dried with the heat tool.  Inked over the whole heart with Distress ink tea dye and the edges with aged mahogany.  The grunge flower was also inked with aged mahogany.  Stamping on flower is with Archival coffee.  Stamping along edge of heart was with Archival olive.  The black flourishes poking from behind the flower were stamped with Archival jet black.  The saying was stamped on a scrap piece of Prima fairy floral paper with jet black, cut out, and the edges inked with walnut stain.  Stitching added around heart with a black pen.
