Pisces Meets Steelers Fan Mixed Media Card

Just a quick share today. 

I totally love when someone sends me a special request for a card or

custom art piece! I merge their vision with my art techniques and something magical happens.

I made this card is made using:

Gelli-printed background

Translucent embossing paste

Distress Ink blending

Stitching

India ink splatters

Torn and cut paper

Dymo labels

Gelly Roll pens

Sharpie paint marker

It was awesome to mix the Steelers colors with the Pisces sign and create a card for a very special lady...one I've known for over 20 years! Happy Birthday!

I'm joining the More Mixed Media Challenge with this card.

Thanks for stopping by and feel free to comment below; I love reading and responding to them!

Heart of Gold for CASology

What an exciting week! My mommie visited for a few days, got some art journaling done, created cards for challenges, received an honorable mention and a feature for two of my creations, had my last appointment to finish my latest tattoo, traveled to DC for a couple of days, and still managed to go to work...whew!

I'm playing along today over at the CASology challenge blog. I was super inspired by Sandy Allnook's Go for the Gold series and really wanted to incorporate something shiny and gold into my creation for this challenge.  The cue card:

What a broad concept for me, but yes, I did take the lovey dovey road :) Here's my final card.
