Today I am posting three cards made in a batch from stamps I bought when I went to the Ally Pally show recently. They were real quickies, with all three taking less than an hour.
I coloured with a mix of inks, I think I used Ecogreen Paris Trunk Parchment and DIs in Wild Honey and Vintage Photo. I stamped the images and sentiment in Ranger black archival. I should have masked the images before I added some of the scripts and textures as background from the Chocolate baroque Mail Art and Miniscripts plates. As a result I was less than happy that there is a halo between the images and background, slapped wrists for me for being lazy, time was against me!
Hope you all have a good Sunday, I am having a lazy one on the computer and crafting!

I have the middle one of these cards. It sits on my shelf where I can look at it every day, and think about my three lovely CSQ friends. I love this card Elaine, and I don't see any faults in it. The image and sentiment are perfect, thank you, Judith xx

Oh Elaine, I think these are all fabulous! I love this stamp too, and the colors you used. You do a really fine job.
ReplyDeleteThe secret garden journal above this post too is amazing. I clicked on the photo to enlarge and I can see all the detail. Well done!
