MY ATC FOR JENNY!

Ok I finally think I am happy with it.

I'm a bit picky.

Here is my ATC for Jenny.. I lovvvvvvvvvved using my 3RD EYE STAMPS!!!
I used the Skull (TES-010) and the Kardiogram (TES-006).

I did glue microbeads onto the skull and I used a chalk like atc and chalk ink .. so it was black and then I used a pink chalk ink for the skull.. and then I used metallic distress stains and crackle paints and found some spiders that are trying to break out.. It came out kind of cool.

I am mailing this to Jenny tomorrow. Hope she likes it. I took lots of pics and tried my hand at editing once again.

 

Sorry it took so long Jenny.
Enjoy.
Happy Scrappn!
