Hi everyone, I hope you're enjoying your weekend.
We've had huge amounts of rain and floods in some areas here, so I didn't venture very far from home!
I inked up a few of these woodgrain panels to play with. I got this sentiment stamp as part of a freebie set from Stampin Up. I like the saying.
I'm linking up to a few challenges:
At Addicted to Stamps & More it's make your mark with paints, pencils etc.
I coloured the butterfly with inktense pencils and used distress ink for the background and tag.
At Simon Says Stamp Monday it's anything goes.
At Simon Says Stamp Wednesday it's also anything goes.
At Cuttlebug Mania the theme is to use a stamp as well as a manual machine like a Big Shot. I used a couple of stamps and my Cuttlebug with an Mpress die to create the tag surrounding the sentiment stamp.
I had to trim 3 sides off and round the edges but I'm happy with how it worked out!
Supplies:
Darkroom Door Woodgrain stamp: Stampin Up You brighten my day stamp;
Hero Arts Antique engravings butterfly stamp; distress inks; Inktense pencils; Mpress label die;
versafine ink & clear ep; brad; stickles and bling.
Thanks for visiting,
