Love Hurts Lil Grumpie |
I used super-sized white dominoes to create my balloon toting horde which feature Smeared Ink's Love Lil Grumpies rubber stamp set. The balloons I drew myself and the text on each one is also from the Love set!
I used Jet Black StazOn Ink to stamp the images onto the dominoes and
heat set before colouring the images with various Sharpie markers using
my signature Sharpie Domino Queen technique. I edged and coloured the
sides of each domino with a black Sharpie marker. The balloons were
drawn on Neenah Solar White cardstock and the text was stamped on each
balloon with Tuxedo Black Memento ink before I coloured them with Copic
markers. The balloon string is black craft wire adhered to the backs of
each domino and balloon and randomly bent and twirled for a fun and
quirky look. I took photos of the altered dominoes first before
applying Judikins Diamond Glaze to protect the stamped surface because
it's tricky to get a good photo without the glare on the glaze.
Have a great weekend!
