CropStop Challenge ~ Quotations

This week's challenge for CropStop is to use quotations in our creations!

I have a COUPON CODE for my blog readers:  CTMP-2 saves you 10% on ANY sized order!  Enjoy!

I used a Picasso quote by Inkadinkadoo and framed it with the fabulous Spellbinders Twisted Metal Tags and Accents die.  I cut the die out of some coated pearlescent cardstock for extra texture and shine. 

I wanted an *arty* background for my quote, so I used the polished stone technique with.  It is super-easy to do...use Ranger alcohol inks or Copics Various Ink Refills and a touch of Tim Holtz Adirondack Silver Mixatives.  Apply the inks to white glossy cardstock with the Ranger Alcohol Ink Applicator and felt.  Use Ranger's Alcohol Blending Solution to achieve your desired effect.

I embellished my quote with a rosette which you can create with a Gluber as your base.  I scalloped some blanket binding and created my fluffy flower.  A vintage button and some Martha Stewart Butterfly Punches finish my card perfectly.
