In my world, J is for the green-eyed god: Jealousy, Jade and Jewels.
I got out my melt pot, and made some jewels with various colours of UTEE. I think I made a fairly muddy fire opal, a piece of dark jade and maybe a ruby or a garnet... I did discover that a tiny pot of Cosmic Shimmer embossing powder with glitter in it is GORGEOUS, and I wish I had a bigger pot!
I reverted to my standard card, Centura Pearl and stamped two eyes, not a pair! They have been coloured with watercolour pencils, making the eyes really green.
The background was done with wax watercolour crayons, and a waterbrush.
When the Jewels were cool, I glued them to the background, and created my tag in the usual way, and glued on the definitions. The ribbon or yarn is a fantastic yarn I bought back along, and is not yet calling to me with any particular pattern!
Hope you like!
