The show is filled with fun new demos and make and takes and most importantly, this year, it featured TIM HOLTZ! I'm sure all you know that I adore Tim Holtz. I feel that the show needs some different organization but this year's show was worlds better than last year's!
Anyways, one of my favorite booths, Tessler Stencil Co., was at the Mega Meet and had a make and take. When I got home with it, it looked like this.
I wanted to turn it into a card, but I knew it needed some cutesy accents, so I made dragonflies to embellish it. I used the same ink pad I used on the M&T so it would match.
I think it just pops now. The colored background and the hummingbirds bring it all together. I know you can't see it but the flowers have all been glittered as well as the birds' wings.
I'm entering some challenges, of course :)
