Stamp It! Cards Week Challenge in the Moxie Fab World

To celebrate the release of the new issue of Stamp It! Cards, Moxie Fab World issued a challenge to create a card where stamping is the predominant element.  If you want to know more, and play along, go to Moxie Fab World Stamp It! Cards challenge.  
A little while back I was lucky enough to win some of the new Faber Castel Mixed media kits from Christi's blog, Alteredambitions and I have been dying to try them out.  So I drew all over an acrylic block with the gelatos and then sprayed it with water, and stamped it on watercolour paper to make my background.  The sentiment is from the Technique Tuesday Studio AE kit from March, Cake and Candles.  I simply matted the stamped paper on some pink cardstock, and I think the result was a simple, pretty card. 
I can't wait to play more with these gelatos!

    What a gorgeous card, Michelle!! I've never even heard of gelatos - I'm dying to find out more about them...and add them to my stamping arsenal :) Such a whimsical, artsy look. I love it! And the style of the sentiment you chose to go with it suits it perfectly. Beautiful card!
