Time for another challenge

by Cornish Heritage Farms designers.  Get out your Krylon Leafing Pens if you have them and if you don't,  CHF does and they are on sale.  Leafing Pen Challenge info.  I have to admit that this was a challenge for me since I am not a metallicie kind of girl.  But after I did it, I liked it.  It can give a project a soldered look with out the heat.  Lots of the CHF designers played along, please check out their links to the right.

MAY-YOUR-DAY-BE 

Cornish Heritage Farms stamps:
Birthday Centers from Mona Lisa Moments Collection

ink:
Lettuce Archival ink by Ranger

other:
silver leafing pen: Krylon
paper: Scenic Route
Chipboard: Making Memories
Crackle paint: Ranger (shabby shutters and tattered rose)
ribbon: Beaux Regards
Brad: Creative Impressions

*Tip lean the pen towards the front for a thin line around the edges on chipboard*

*Tip 2 for thinner cracks apply a thin coat of crackle paint and glob it on for thicker cracks.  I applied 2 coats*

*FF Cotton is heavier than water* (scratches head)

have a great week :)

Kim: As always, I am loving your card! I have a question: How did you get the circle background? I love the circles with the lines - almost like starbursts! Is that a stamp? I went all over CHF's website and couldn't find the a stamp like that. I LOVE it! Too cute! Thanks for sharing.
