Celebrating CJ Nalley

 This week CJ is the featured stamper at SCS and I happened across this Country living birthday card of hers and Knew I could do something with it as the inspiration. I do have that set but, You have to make at least two changes so, I stamped this Comotion light wrapped cowboy boot with some Versafine morning mist on the cheap watercolor paper. 

First layers of paint.

So, after the first layer dried I did add a second layer and decided to add a wash to the background to help the "glow" pop and was lucky it did not turn green but, it did get some funky lines. I decided I needed some sparkle to the glow and lights and such. 

So I added some stickles glitter glue to the light bulbs and some white gouache to the catch lights on the bulbs. I had saved space for that but, I did goof the blue bulb and so, this was an attempt to even them out. after this dried I did add some stardream gelly roll pen to all those dots around the "glow" and the spur out the top of the boot. 

Because I had changed the them to Christmas I did wrap the red ribbon (May Arts) around a couple of corners as a nod to that sentiment and those red banners she has on the corner of her card. I did use the Simon Says Stamp wonky stitched rectangle die to cut the watercolor panel. The wood grain here is pretty old its from Provo Craft the natural pine print had red splatters. The base here was cut to A6. That's about it from me. Thanks for stopping by.
