Tattered Rose DI inks to add some shading. When I came home I used it to make this card for my eldest sister's birthday at the weekend.I used a Chocolate Baroque corner stamp from the Nature Swirls set and Brilliance Pearlescent Beige ink to create a border round the edge of a square card, and embossed a piece of mauve pearl card using a Cuttlebug folder to make a background mat. The stamped image was the mounted with thin foam tape and I added some ribbon and roses from my stash. To finish I stamped a tiny Happy Birthday ticket and two little butterflies which I had stamped and coloured to match.

That turned out lovely Jean. I bought the stamp second hand, and I don't know what make it is either. I love the way you have coloured it and mounted it. I'd better see what I can do with it now! Kate x

ReplyDeleteLovely seeing the way your ribbon picks up the colours of the image & your torn edges give a lovely soft look to the whole in keeping with the stamped image. We have a Magnolia tree in our garden which is a delight at this time of
