Hello and Welcome.
Time for a reminder card for the
We are using a colour theme this month and we are also celebrating our 2nd birthday with prizes so please come and check it all out.
The card I created is a super simple design using green, orange and brown inks.
I began by die-cutting a circle to use as my mask. I laid the mask in place and stamped the image using some Rich Cocoa Memento ink. Then I sponged on some Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide inks around the opening of the circle. Using some Carved Pumpkin and some Bundled Sage, I painted in the background. Just press your ink pads onto a non-stick craft sheet, spray with some water and you have ink to pick up with a paintbrush.
I removed the circle mask and stamped the sentiment using my Misti with the same brown ink. Lastly, using a piercing tool, I poked small holes all around the inked circle to help add interest.
Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
Hope you will come and play along with us.
