Creative Embellishments July Challenge

It's the first of July and time for another challenge at Creative Embellishments.  This month the twist is to use a stamped image on your project.  Here's the inspiration photo. 

I love the Grunge Heart Corner stamp and chippy and thought it would make a fun art panel paired with a Bigger Back Chat quote from Dyan Reaveley.   I purposely created a dichotomy of design by using pretty romantic paper as the background and then using grunge pieces to embellish.  For all you single gals out there, the quote is right on isn't it?

I layered up 3 hearts to get my effect beginning with a Heart Doodle Frame on the bottom, topped with the Grunge Heart Corner chipboard piece.  I stamped the Grunge Heart Corner stamp onto mixed media paper and colored it with watercolor pencils, fussy cut and used foam tape to pop up over the Grunge Heart chippy.

I used embossing enamel on all the chipboard pieces.

I also stamped on the background with the Hearts Stamp.   To add to the grunge effect I used Distressed Checker Pieces on the left side of the tag. 

In this photo you can see the layers of hearts .
