I have finally mounted up a batch of Crafty Individual stamps I have had for ever, so am making use of them. This one suits our theme perfectly.
I have used distress ink on silk card which guves a slighly softer colour. I dried this and then stamped over with black archival ink, which I then dried as well. The background papers are fairly muted, and are all from the Raspberry Road Travelogue. I have added some small Petaloo flowers to finish off.
This week we are sponsored by
and one lucky winner will receive 5 digital stamps or 4 digital stamps and 1 digital paper set of their choice.
I am entering this card in the following challenges:
ColorLab - Colour challenge - I used the colours for the challenge
Cards und More - I followed the sketch
Creative Craft Challenges - Summertime
Digital Tuesday - I love the sea - include a digital element (my papers are digital)
