Hourglass of Love

on


Hi everyone and happy Wednesday :)

Today I am sharing a layered and simple card (instead of a "clean"+simple card ;-) )!
I had some fun using Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko's Firework! and Sheer Shimmer Spritz sprays on the doily (that was originally plain white). I hope you can see the awesome shimmer from the sprays in the close up (see below)

The focal point was created by stamping the hour glass with in light pink and then I overstamped the sentiment with a medium dark grey Memento ink.

I did some die cutting for the layers and added rhinestones for some extra pizzazz ;-)

As always, you can find the step-by-step instructions and a complete list of supplies below this post in the grey boxes :)



Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope to see you here on my blog again, soon :)

    Well, you have sold me on that spritz...love the effect on the beautiful doily. It was hard for me to take my eyes off that pretty doily, but I also really like the hour glass and the sentiment. Well done!
