Hello

 


Today is the the 12th and it is time for another Hot Mess card. This card is #68, so we are in the middle of year #7. The idea of Hot Mess ~ Success is to Get Messy and you will have Success!  Messiness can be almost anything that we come up with--glitter, alcohol inks, glimmer glitz, sponged backgrounds, etc., anything that is a bit messy.  We are a very fun group and will post a card each month on the 12th.  The links to the other members are on my left side bar and I will also link them at the bottom at this post.






For my messiness this month, I used Creative Expressions Metallic Gilding Pastes--Chocolate Bronze, Tarnished Gold and Enchanted Gold. I used a Gina K Designs Stencil called Fizzy and used the blending brushes that are attached to each of the pastes and pounced it over all of the dots.  I then picked some Mirricard Copper cardstock to use as a layer behind the dots and also for the die cut the word Hello from my Concord & 9th set called Everyday Sayings.  I die cut the backer from velum and added some copper bling from The Ton.   





I really like the look of this card and hope you do too.  I also sure hope my fellow messy ladies like them too!  Here are the links to the other somewhat messy crafters:   Carol, Darlene, Jeanette and TerryI am sure you will enjoy seeing how everyone got messy this month and was successful in making some great cards!   Be sure to check back to see what we are up in March!
