Heart of Gold

I got some new Essentials by Ellen stamps this week, so I decided to play along again with their Mix-It-Up Challenge to combine Ellen's stamps with Hero Arts (because the $50 prize would buy a lot of creative fun).

I started with Essentials by Ellen Fancy Thanks (don't you love that font).  I loved the *heart of gold* sentiment, so I decided to design around it.

I stamped that sentiment (together with the tiny heart from the same set) using Delicata Golden Glitz ink and Gold Detail Embossing Powder.  I combined them with Clearly Kelly Super Cool from Hero Arts.  Instead of giving the tin man a heart … I gave my robot a heart of gold.

I colored him using Spectrum Noir Marker CG2, which approximated the Pear Pizzazz in the Nacho Average Color Challenge.  I added accents (and some shading on his body) using my Wink of Stella Gold Brush Pen.

I finished with a sentiment from Kelly's set using a The Crooked Stamper Sketch Challenge.
