Inky Collage

Good Morning

I hope you are well as we all deal with this isolation.  

Time for some inky fun.  I've had some time off now and I have been playing and getting inky; love it!

 Every time I make a card or play with ink, I just hate wasting the leftovers.  I always try and have some extra cardstock nearby at hand to soak up the extra inks left on my mat.  Often with just a little spray of water, a background is created.

That is how this card was born.

So, I began with this inky background....I think I soaked up some Peeled Paint, Peacock Feathers and some Broken China onto my white cardstock.  

I placed it into my Misti and stamped this collage style stamp using some black Versafine ink.  I did heat emboss it with some clear powder to help make the black really pop.

Using a square die, I cut a square from the inked panel and used it to stamp my sentiment on to.

I mounted that small square onto a piece of white cardstock, then pop dot mounted it back into the piece, matching up where it had been cut away from.

Keeping with the simple theme of this card, I mounted it onto some more white and then onto a white card base.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop in and visit.  

I also want to thank you for all your most kind and generous comments.  I do truly appreciate them all and find them so encouraging during this difficult time.

Take care and stay safe.
