It is a gloomy old day again today. Real April showers at the moment. Here is a megaquick card I made this week, using a mask I bought at the weekend when I went to my favourite show at Ally Pally. I had a wonderful time doing some serious shopping of stamps, inks, card, gorgeous 12 x 12 papers, tape, glue, etc, etc. Most importantly, it gave me the chance to catch up with some special crafting friends.
For this card, I sponged Stone Paris Trunk ink through the mask and added the highlights on the trees with black brilliance inks. The sentiment (which is actually silver) is from Craftwork Cards.
To finish on a brighter note, here are a couple of pics I took at the weekend when the sun was shining through rose leaves near my front door. They looked so lovely I had to grab the camera.
Have a lovely day whatever you are doing.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos - weather doing funny things here too. Glad you had a super time at the show & managed to meet up with the others too. Love the look of those tree trunks - & these masks are definitely going on my list of purchases. Your accenting of the tree highlights is a lovely idea & so realistic.

A lovely card Elaine, I really like the stencil you've used. The sky here has looked the same colour as your sky in this all day today.
