Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!

You should be coming from Annette Green's blog, if you're not, that's ok, keep hopping and you'll make a complete circle.  This stamp can be yours free or at a discount depending on your order in February - (click here for details)

This month's stamp set is called FRIENDSHIP (D1453)

This stamp set would be great for making backgrounds for all your projects, so I decided to do something different and make it more the center of attention:
 I used Crystal Blue and Black Cardstock.  The card is 6 x 6. I stamped the image in Daisy White Pigment ink, heated with a heat gun.  Using our colored pencils I colored in the image leaving a little white showing on all the edges.
 With a White pigment pen I added dots and a few lines.  Then comes the bling!  I added pink, blue and green sparkles on a lot of the circles that are in the stamp artwork.
The photos don't do it justice, it shimmers and looks a lot richer in person.
Now head over to Toni Hinchcliffe's blog to see more great work with this stamp!  Thanks for looking - leave comments on everyone's blog.
