Memory Game

This is a fun little memory game I created using the small stamps from some of the new releases from My Favorite Things. I bought this monogrammed candle tin from M's for $1. I used my Mega circle punch and went at my mini wheats cereal box. I then did several coats of brown paint as my base. The images were all colored with my copics. I used Mod Podge to adhere all the images to the chipboard as well as the paper and ribbon on the tin.
Here is a close up of the tiles. I did attempt some shadowing on the images to give them a little depth. I also inked the edges of the scallop punch to give them more definition.

Here is a close up of the tin itself. I just love the dots from the "It's elemental" set. Well there you have it, I'm off to get my hair chopped (before our Grand Canyon adventure) I hate to have hot hair on my neck. Oh did I mention I bought new glasses the other day. I have gone years in a blurry world, now the eyestrain is really getting to me so new glasses it is. Happy Stamping!
