Simon Says Stamp and Show a Hand


Simon Says Stamp challenge is asking for a hand this week.  I decided to make an atc using the hand stamp from the Spirit plate by Creative Expressions.  I used distress inks crushed olive, tea dye and old paper to colour the background.  I stamped the image in black soot and then heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.  I created a mask and stamped the text from the same plate using rusty hinge over the top.  I mixed some copper perfect pearls with water and painted it over the hand to give it a sheen.  Not sure if you can see from the photo.  I distressed the edges with a paper distresser and inked with walnut stain.
