Isn't she (Deco Face) beautiful?
I'm such a romantic, and this face...well, it captured my imagination the second I saw it in the Technique Junkies Stamps Store. I even gave her a name...it's Kathleen. She reminds me of my great-aunt "Kitty" Kathleen (who was a true flapper). I recently added her to my Technique Junkies stamp collection and I have many ideas of more ways to create with her. The sentiment I've added to this is from "Sentimental Sayings", was stamped with VersaMark and heat embossed with white ep, and is a fabulous sentiment set to have in your collection.

To create this card, using my MISTI, I first stamped her in Blue Danube Memento ink on white card stock. I colord her face with Copic Markers and then replaced her into the MISTI (I hadn't removed the stamp) and stamped her upper head (hair) again with black VersaMark ink. This gave the image depth. An embossing folder piece behind her highlighted with Delicata gold ink gave my version of "deco". She's framed and mounted on dark blue card stock and I added some touches of a gold gel pen dots for depth to the background.

What an amazing look to this flapper!
What you have done here SS with this image is astounding. Had to go and look at what the stamp looked like. You really have made Kathleen a face of beauty. Great background with the gold which really brings her to life. Wowza!
