I have made this sexy little number as my entry for Created By Hand’s ‘stencils’ challenge and Aunty’s Toppers, Tags & ATCs challenge (*New*) – #1 which is to use ‘Birthday’ in the artwork. Here’s the Torso-tag:
I made a stencil by stamping the Goddess (Cherry Pie Artstamps) onto acetate and cutting it out. I smudged gold ink through it and heat embossed the whole image! Added the bling and those peeloff words – incidentally, the word ‘Irresistible’ is spelled with an ‘a’, duh! Wonder where those came from!
The birthday tag is attached with the black paperclip to the back of the torso and reads: “Happy Birthday Goddess!”
The faux crocodile stuff was the covering on an old jewellery box I stripped!! The pull-out drawers were removed and hold some of my inkpads and the lower drawer is like my ‘project-on-the-move’ tray! Never waste anything, particularly the good stuff! 😉
