Keep me in your heart...

Hello fellow Crafters,

It's Wednesday again ! Today is is Gez' turn to host the Challenge over at the Stampotique Designers' Challenge Blog and she chose the theme : Sentimental phrases or words. This is what she said :

"Hi Gez here, I am delighted to be your hostess for this challenge.. I love sentiments and sayings, they really say it all to me! They make a piece finished! I'd like you to share some of your favourite words with us this week! They can be a main focal point or an embellishment, it's your choice! Say it with words..."

Why not hop over and have a go yourself. You could win a $30,- gift certificate for those lovely stamps. Just no digs and only one entry per person. Also, it would be nice if you used a Stampotique stamp !

I made an art journal :


The background was made with Pan Pastels in pink. I used a background stamp and my trusty cookie cutter to give the background some more interest. I also used a bit of sequin waste and white ink to stencil the white blocks. I then stamped the hearts on a bit of old book paper and cut them out, adhered them on the page with gel medium and gave them a bit of shading with a Big Brush Artist pen. Next I stamped Heartshirt on white card stock, coloured him with Copic Markers, cut him out and adhered him too with gel medium. I then printed the sentiment which is from Winnie de Pooh and adhered it to the hearts. Lastly I doodled around the page with a black and white pen and that was it. 
I used the following Stampotique Stamps : 

Thanks for stopping by ! 

Hope you like it...

  5. You know that I am a big fan of your work, Corrie, but this journal page really speaks to me. Perhaps it is because of my age and the fact that I really do love my husband so very much. I am definitely going to "lift" this page when I make Russ's birthday and our anniversary card (one in the same date!) next month! So well done, my friend!
