Be Brave

Hey!!  Whether you are visiting my blog or reading this in an email, thank you for taking the time!!!  I appreciate each of you and am blessed to have you following along!!

I'm sharing another ATC today.  There are several more that will be showing up as I have time.  The background was created back in August during PaperArtsy's blog topic, Gels and Mediums.  I put Golden's heavy gel medium through a stencil onto heavy Smoothy cardstock.  Once dry, it was sprayed with a few different shimmery sprays.  I had started to make a card with some of the background and it is not yet finished.  I cut the extra into atc blanks.  The leaf stem was left over, blank, and I colored it using ink and embossing powders.  I've used a swirly stamp and black Archival ink around the edges, a Idea-ology sticker from the small talk set for "be bave" and some black twine to finish.
