Everytime I visit the Rubber Stamp Tapestry Booth at CHA - I admire Susan's vinatage photo stamps. Today I finally got to play with Sweet Sisters PHS 942004-H. I had purchased this small box of chocolates last week to decorate and when my stamp arrived today the light bulbs went off and I decided this stamp would be perfect for my heart shaped box of chocolates. I chose a heart shaped box with red roses on the top of the box. To create this project I removed the cellophane wrap and stamped the sweet sisters stamp on white paper using Adriondack Jet Black Ink. Then I decided to use my copic markers to give the vintage photo a vintage tint. I colored the faces using Copic E21- Baby Skin Pink. I used RV-10 - Pale Pink to tint theyounger girls dress. The older sister's dress I tinted in YR20 - Yellowish Shade. I colored the sisters hair with Y17- Golden Yellow. The roses and the hair ribbons I colored with R29-Lipstick Red. For the background of the stamp I used B24-Sky. The two tiny hearts and the love script are from my Rubber Stamp Tapestry - Flourish Plate 1 set. I used my square scalloped nestabilities to make the black kromekote frames and the crimson red square. For a little extra bling I added gold and red rhinestones from Kaiser Crafts. For the final touch I used my Krylon Gold leafing pen to edge the actual box of chocoaltes. However the chocolates from the box did not survive the design process!!! yum!! yum!!
Thanks for visiting!!
