Simon Says Stamp and Show Me...

.....METAL!
To check out other details and enter the challenge, go to the Simon Says Stamp and Show Blog!

Oooo, can't tell you how I was looking forward to using some Ten Seconds Studio stash...lol..
I combined Ten Seconds Studio Rock Star Black Metal, Clearly for Art modeling film, Ten Seconds Studio Kabuka mold Girly and Studio 490 stamp sets It's Face Art and Just Sew Artsy to dress up a "stubbie", yep, that's what I call chunks of 2 x 4 lumber...and black and silver are my "theme" colors this week....lol...

I used clear Clearly for Art, and painted the back with Black paint dabber. Silver paint dabber to stamp dots and other patterns on the flowers. Her "neck" is a memo pin, tucked behind the dress form. The dots are my new Chrome Silver Viva Pearl Pen.
Studio 490 stamps in silver pigment ink from Just Sew Artsy.
