Ancient?

Hi Everyone, it's a Friday and it's my DT card at 
http://qkrstampede.blogspot.com/
We will select two winners each week 1 using QKR Stampede
 or Eureka Stamps image and 1 using any image!

Anything Goes every Friday

We have a friends birthday coming up soon and I couldn't resist this image and quote from QKR. I did something I haven't done before, which is to print the background I wanted to a digital stamp and include the stamp for colouring in the printing. I'm happy to report it actually worked. It made it a one layer card, which is not what I wanted - 

SO, off to see if there were any images or digital cut files in my vast image files, I couldn't believe it, the only thing that came up with "rock" was music files? Searching on the web, produced the same response, but changing the search to rock shape! that was a different matter, all manner of rocks came up, but nothing suitable. I copied some meteorite rocks, added them to my Silhouette and made shapes out of them. I layered them, slightly off, and coloured them with the same colours as the image and background, this gave them a little shadow and depth. I loved the texture the card gave them.

This makes me smile, I hope it does you too.
