MFT81 Challenge

Getting Sketchy again this week with MFT Stamps. I decided to use the MFT Miss You Much Jolinne stamp for my image and picked out my paper from there.  Well, the way I was leaning just fell flat until I remembered this Destinations paper by Tim Holtz I had in my craft closet, then I knew exactly what I needed to do.  So, here's the sketch:

I used Recollections Printer Cork paper for the background (I was so happy it was sticky on the backside).  The rest of the background paper is the Tim Holtz's Destinations paper.  Even the paper for the luggage is the from Tim Holtz.  I stamped on the leather looking paper for the luggage then embossed it with Ebony Embossing Powder.  I really wanted it to stand out on the dark paper.  Then carefully I cut the image out.  Then I stamped the cute little girl and decided to emboss her too.  Of course she had to be carefully cut out too.  I wanted the hardware of the luggage to look like metal, so a little bling with yellow Stickles did just the job.  Here is it, my take on the sketch:

I added a little bit of ribbon with a brad by BoBunny.  Added the sentiment on die cut clouds from MFT Cloud Trio.  Decided to finish it up with some paper piercing, because it needed something else, holes.

Well, hopefully you have been inspired.  Thanks for looking !  :o)
