This matches the card I posted yesterday. I used two saturated canary digis to show the bookhead in and out (at I library I’ve decided!!). I created the background to the digis using Craft Artist.
I sanded the wooden blank edges and coloured them with distress inks and then stuck on Tim Holtz dictionary pages. I then resanded the edges and coloured them with distress ink.
I coloured the digis with Pro and flexmarkers and highlighted with pearlescent ink. I used glossy accents on the eyes and lips.
I used ribbons from clothing and buttons to attach the base card. I punched two circles of the Tim Holtz paper and attached them together with foam pads with the writing facing inwards. I made the heart paper using Craft Artist.
This is the other side.
I made the flowers and leaves using punches and then coloured and added gems in the centre.
It took me a long time but I love the end result.
I would like to enter the following challenges

That’s a cute little door hanger, and what an unusual project! Thanks for your comment on my blog. I had to revamp the post about the vintage backgrounds yesterday because for some reason all the pictures had disappeared (blasted blogger…) and when I re-uploaded it, it went up with yesterday’s date! It’s back in January 2011 where it belongs now, though. Glad you liked it!
