Co-Brand Tuesday AND MORE DESIGN MEMORY CRAFT

Good MORNING! :)


Here is some more GELATO fun!

I wet a paint brush and took some pigment directly from the gelato to 'ink' up my sentiment.

SO cool, right?

I was able to mix a blue and green tone to get the perfect color.

Don't you LOVE how those eyes sparkle a bit more? Well...it may be hard for you to see...in the picture but they do in real life. :) I used a Faber-Castell Blue Metallic pen to color the END. So cool! :)


I also used a GELATO and paint brush to add some yummy color to the edge. I love how it softens it up. Such a cool product! SO CREAMY! :)
