Hanging Line


A while back Janice (thanks!!) gifted me with a few serendipity images and this one I colored with odd markers on the table ( SU, Tombo, Copic, Prisma) then distressed it with some antique linen, old paper, and brushed corduroy inks, this was kinda you know brushed on so it was not quite what I wanted so grabbed one of those finger dauber deals and smeared old paper distress over the entire image. ah there we go. :) the sentiments from the changito line of Stampendous on some scrap die cuts also inked with distress inks and up on pop dots. the romantic rectangles die ( is a pain in the everything to cut worse then a square or circle smaller shape because, if are cutting with a cuttlebug you cannot rotate the image to get the ends that did not cut or emboss... bent my metal shim plate all to heck and back on this one too. the brads are unknown and this ones 5X7 in real life. will have to try these dies in the grand c but, its such a hassle to move that one and try to remember how the layers / pads go ( I can do my cuttlebug without thinking about it, but I have had the handle come off once and now I'm thinking I better be careful with it because the new models are not the same. and I need it for all my steel ruled dies. and I will have to make an effort to learn the Grand and remember it for the flat dies.
