Such a lot of lovely Penny Black stamps....I think I'm in heaven! lol
I couldn't resist having a little play, and got a little inky making a card for this week's Less is More challenge using a couple of my new stamps. I blended some 'Tumbled Glass' Distress Ink on some plain white card, then stamped the background stamp ('Circular Design') over it using the same ink. I stamped the flower ('Sundial') a couple of times in black ink, adding a little extra shading to the petals using the ink and a waterbrush, then cut them out and layered up some of the petals. To echo the line drawing style of the flower, I added a doodled border with a black gel pen. The sentiment stamp was a freebie with a Docrafts magazine.
Challenges for this card:
- Allsorts - Free & Easy
- Challenge Up Your Life - Monochrome
- Crazy Challenge - Flowers
- Less is More - Aqua
- Totally Stampalicious - Clean & Simple
Simply stunning creation Helen and congratulations.....did they know you are a huge PB fan lol....enjoy!
