Supplies

1 tube of choice - I used the artwork of Dean Yeagle which can now be purchased from CDO. You must have a license to use.

Weescotlass mask 297 here

Eyecandy 3.1 - Glow

“Honeysuckle & Roses ” is a scrap kit collaboration in both tagger and full size available at TKO Scraps. This entire collaboration has 468 elements, 3 Alpha’s, and 160 Papers. Tagger size is $3. Full size is $10 or free with an $8. This is one sweet deal the store is having and I would highly recommend taking advantage of it. Each designer’s portion is gorgeous! For this tutorial I’m using the portion of Krissy‘s Scraps. You can visit her blog here. Thank you Krissy for your wonderful portion of this collab!
