Hello and Welcome.
I haven't had much time for stamping these days.
Very happy to be able to create a card today.
This card is simple and clean looking using a fresh colour of green Distress Oxide ink. Love how you can easily stamp over these inks and they are great for creating layered backgrounds.
For this bkg. I must give a big shout-out to my friend Loll Thompson and her video:
Very fun and easy tutorial to follow too!
Hope you check it out.
I used Peeled Paint DOX for my background and when dry, I stamped the images over the inky green using my Misti. To add further interest to my card, I stenciled the clock face to one side and the dots on the other.
I love how this card turned out, simple and quick to create.

The teasels are gorgeous Karen, and such a detailed stamp by Art Jouney, and the splash background combined with the clock face and dots complements them so well. x
