HEARTS ENTWINED

I've created an ATC using the fabulous Hearts Entwined stamp set from Creative Expressions.
I have added metal to the background of my ATC and embossed with the M-Bossabilities Hearts embossing folder, colouring with Alcohol Inks and then rubbing over with a little wire wool to give an industrial feel.
I stamped the heart onto white card stock with black Archival Ink, colouring with brushed corduroy Distress Ink and spritzed with water.
The heart has then been stamped onto metal cut out, holes added around the aoutside edge and a little black Paint Dabber added to the top of the heart to age. I have also added a mini gear and crown for added dimension and interest.
To complete I added BE MINE stamped onto white card and coloured with Distress Inks.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Tracy x x
