It's the first Saturday of the month, so that means it's time for a new Penny Black Saturday Challenge...where the theme is:
'Anything Goes'
or
'Nature'
or
'Nature'
I decided to use my 'Blossom Branch' stamp, and inked it up with some 'Stormy Sky' Distress Ink, spritzed it with a little water, then using my Tim Holtz stamping platform, stamped it on to a piece of watercolour paper. I then went back and inked up some of the flowers and parts of the leaves with 'Chipped Sapphire' Distress Ink, again spritzed with a little water, and stamped again. I added a few ink splatters, and sentiment using a stamp from the 'Sketched Flowers' set by Simon Says Stamp, then distressed the edges a little before adding the panel to my card blank.
I'm aso entering this card into the following challenges:
- A Bit More Time to Craft - Anything Goes
- A Perfect Time to Craft - Anything Goes
- Cards Galore Encore - Anything Goes
- Crafter's Cafe - Anything Goes
- Crafty Catz - Anything Goes
