I had great fun inking the card first with tea dye, then applying vintage photo and gathered twigs stains with a stencil and then playing with my new ranger texture paste (only had the transparent one and other makes before so when I saw the new stamp lines in at Dyans I treated myself to both sets and the texture paste - whoop). It's lovely to play with and it was fun to add the embossing powder too as I hadn't tried this before although my first attempts with distress embossing powder and a glow in the dark powder didn't come out as well and therefore didn't make the final cut!
I then coloured in one of cat stamps with distress markers and stamped, coloured and cut out the ball of wool from the same set too (my favourite stamps at the moment). I had to fussy cut the images out as I don't have the corresponding die set yet - wasn't quite sure how to add the sentiment without hiding half of the wall so I just stamped directly onto the background something else I haven't done for a while too.
Anyway this my take on the February challenge - hope you like it. At the moment I currently busy restocking my shelves in Naissance De with some new artwork which has been fun. I am also very excited today as I am off to London tomorrow with the girls as we are going on a day trip to Liberty's - can't wait! Probably won't sleep with the excitement of all it tonight!
Thanks for looking - Liberty fan from Solihull
