Prettie Wednesday- Heat Gun

So, two weeks ago, Danille(dlounds), challenged all the Prettie Girls to make a card using our heat gun. It didn't matter how you used it, you just had to use it....grrrr. My heat gun and I don't get along very well. Okay, it isn't the heat guns fault, I am just lazy and I hate to emboss, LOL!!! I know there are lots of creative ways to use your heat gun, and I know I SHOULD of done something more inventive, but I didn't, ehehehe!! I stamped the image and sentiment from the Paper Pretties set, Sweets For the Sweet, with Chocolate Chip craft ink and then embossed it with Clear Detail EP. I colored the image in with my SU markers and then outlined it with my Cool Grey Copic(C3). The image was then layered with Regal Rose, Pumpkin Pie, and Chocolate Chip. The colors were drawn from my Sweet Always DP from SU. I added some piercing and silver brads and then some Chocolate Organdy. Since I felt like a cheater, hehe, I did heat the organdy to give it a crinkled look...so cool right(I KNOW, I am a total cheater but seriously...). I followed today's SCS sketch challenge for my card too, go me!! LOL!!! Well, that is it for me for now!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!! Be sure to check out the Prettie Girls to see what they have been up to!!

    hahahahahhaha!
    Jessie, you have me giggling with your story. And where's the cheating! My goodness, lady! You've embossed and added crinkled organdy ribbon! Sheesh! The last time I crinkled ribbon ... I know I had to do it more than once. (Uhh ... a heavy heat tool touch is NOT good!) hahaha
    Love your card!
