Three techniques were used on this page - Cuttlebug Embossed Grungeboard, Drunken Scotch and the Pocket Heart. (I still owe you a tutorial for the Drunken Scotch)
Cuttlebug embossing on Grungeboard is just like paper and adds a lot of dimension to your project! Before embossing I direct to paper inked the wings with SU Soft Sky. After embossing I brayered and sponged on Choc Chip.
The Pocket Heart was one of the Technique Challenges from SCS - inside the heart I placed 10 of the things that I love about my SIL/Best Friend!
Some of the steps: (a) stamps - Impression Obsession, things & about (TAC), (b) paper - Wanted & Hey Sugar (Cosmo Cricket), SU Choc Chip, Pretty in Pink, © distress, sponge (d) 10 things inside the heart were computer generated, used SU oval punch and copper eyelet to create the end decoration - this was all wire/ beaded together and I added a Drunken Scotch Grungeboard Key
