America's Sweetheart



I really like some of the new pendant dies from Spellbinders and felt that the renaissance heart one would be perfect for this Stampsmith image of Shirley Temple. She is stamped with Memories black on glossy cardstock and coloured with watercolour markers, used as paint. I cut out 8 of the hearts from the incandescant white paper from the Paper Temptress, airbrushed them with a Copic marker, then applied them to the central pendant. This is mounted on a green parchment panel with dimensionals. I cut the border out of the same incandescant paper, airbrushed it and applied it to the base which was cut with the border. The words were done with vellum in a dymo label maker and accented with Copic marker. The edges are inked to add depth.

Supplies used- Stampsmith stamp, glossy cardstock, waterbased markers, Spellbinders renaissance heart pendant and borderabilities, Copic marker and airbrush, vellum, pearls, all other papers from Paper Temptress, SU dye ink
