Smile, Smile, Smile

Smile, it's Tuesday, let's make this a great week it's, the end of February and the beginning of March.  In an attempt to clean up my desk, a little Spring cleaning, I thought why put things away when I can create with what's scattered about.   I had made this background for my card last month but never used it, it was time.

The Buffalo Plaid stamp was stamped on watercolor paper with VersaMark ink and embossed with white embossing powder.  I then rubbed different colors of Distress Inks directly on the panel, sprayed it with water and let it dry.  This is one of my favorite techniques.

The Smile Large Word Die was then die cut three times from black cardstock and once from yellow, pink and orange.  The colors were offset over the black to give a shadow effect.

If you have extra pieces laying around on your desk, don't put them away, create!
