Happy With You

Greeting Card

This card was made with a stamp by Laurel Burch whose art features bright, bold and playful colors. Honestly, I've never had much luck tinting this stamp in the same style (it's harder than it looks).

But given the Simon challenge this week (Red, White and Blue), I limited my palette to just those colors and had better success.

I stamped on top of scrapbook paper, used Pitt brush pens to tint, and applied the image to a background printed with a gelli plate. The text is a Small Talk sticker and the dots were made with a gel pen.

As always, I hope this post finds you well and happy and I appreciate your visit.

Until next time, take care.

My Name is Salt

Manila Tag

Motivated by Simon's challenge this week (Inspired by a Movie), I've made a tag to share a most memorable documentary recently enjoyed that you might like too.

The film is called "My Name is Salt." Their website describes it this way:

Year after year, for an endless eight months, thousands of families move to a desert in India to extract salt from the burning earth. Every monsoon their salt fields are washed away, as the desert turns into sea. And still they return, striving to make the whitest salt in the world.

The cinematography is excellent and it's a good one to watch when you need something very mellow to relax with.

 “My Name is Salt” is available online worldwide:

Additionally, it’s out on Amazon Video @ http://www.amazon.com and http://www.amazon.co.uk

Regarding my tag, I tried to interpret the film as best I could. I made a stamp-resist background with clear embossing power and a variety of texture stamps, Distress inks for tint, an image transfer, gold paint dots along the border and a touch of Clear Rock Candy Distress Glitter.

As always, I hope this post finds you well and happy and I appreciate your visit.

Until next time, take care.
