The Best Way To Your Future!

When I saw the challenges at Simon Says Stamp - Monday and Wednesday as well as the sketch challenge at Scrapping Everyday Miracles I simply had to combine them!

I layered patterned paper over a dark grey card base and inked the edges. Then I took a piece of white cardstock and used Distress Paints to sponge a rainbow effect through the heart stencil from Tim Holtz. I sponged over my stencilled background with Distress Inks in the same or similar colours to match the paint colours. 

I found a chipboard frame that I had already painted with pink paint. I stencilled on it through a Heidi Swapp stencil - one of my favourite with hearts, stars and circles- with Distress Ink and then added Ranger Sticky Stuff and Distress Glitter in Rock Candy. It was more subtle than I expected, but that's the fun part about playing- figuring out new techniques!

I used a piece of patterned paper from Simple Stories that had a cloud background on it and the Dream sentiment and I stamped the Future sentiment in black.
