You Light up my Life

light up my life

Hello scrapping friends……playing along today at Operation Write Home in their “make your own wood grain paper” challenge.

Going for a more white washed look, I used Memento London Fog ink (however, I only use the small ink pads, so the effect is not great). But as you can see on the right side of the card I did achieve what looks like two boards. I still like the background so I went with what I got.
Stamps are Taylored Expressions and the set comes with a couple of different sentiments as well as the dies for the jar and lid. I love it!!!
All colored with Copic Markers, then added Key Lime Liquid Pearls to the lightning bugs. (I miss the bugs as I live in Florida and they don’t come this far south). Ruffle is fussy cut from Basic Grey True Love pad.

Hope you are having a crafty day
and thanks for stamping by…..

Let's go Shopping:
