Take note when your heart speaks

This week at Stampotique Designer's Challenge blog the theme is Bling it On and it's encouraged that you use a lot of bling aka glitter/sparkles in your work. It's honestly a difficult challenge for me as I don't use much glitter at all in my work. But I have made the page above in my mini black spiral journal and used LOTS of glitter and I hope I did the theme justice!

I used Art Basics soft matte gel to adhere sparkly see through foil on the background, added another later of gel medium and poured the glitter and stars over it. Made sure that dried before adhering Stitch, small bee and the When Heart Speaks sentiment (which I cut out and rearranged). The images are colored with promarkers and scribbled around the edges with a glitter Sakura Gelly Roll.

By the way, I used the petal in this flower cube to create wings for Stitch. And those are colored with ZIG wink of Stella sparkle brush pens. Obviously I adhered those first before the other image elements. 

While it was a HUGE step out of my comfort zone I'm quite pleased with the result. Hope this inspires you to play along with this fortnight's challenge.
