MFW Tuesday Trigger: Cross My Heart

Oh my, Cath at Moxie Fab World has done it again. Just look at the photo she inspired us this week for the Tuesday Trigger.




I need to stop looking, because these triggers distract me from my "to do" list. A quick check through my alphabet stamps found one that I thought would work to mimic the painted cross stitch on the pillow. This might just be one of the first alphabets I bought - Hero Arts Pixie Letters on the long wood pegs.




I inked the stamp with Worn Lipstick Distress Ink and created the color variation by randomly stamping off before re-inking. It has been a long time since I tried to line up Alpha stamps mounted on a wood peg!




The flowers and pearls are from my stash, the blue paper is Authentique and the sentiment from Technique Tuesday.

The Simon Says Stamp Challenge this week is Have a Heart, so I am linking this card over there too!

Thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie
