Dream it! Wish it! Do it!


PRODUCTS USED:

Mount board panel
Crackle texture paste
Archival ink
Ink sprays
Gilding polish 
Ripped book page
Camel lash twine
Dimensional glue

HOW TO MAKE:
Stamp the crackle background over the entire panel...

Spritz with ink sprays, I used pink and yellow...

Add a smear of crackle texture paste done the centre...

Accent the texture with gilding polish, also around the edges to frame it...

Stamp butterfly vertically and spray some more ink at the top and let it run down into the texture...

Glue on a ripped piece of book page and then add some offset dots with texture paste for more interest...

Stamp and die cut the dragonflys and ticker tape sentiment, cut some camel eyelash twine and use the dimensional glue to adhere the twine on (if you put it on the back of the die cuts it will hold in place) subtly colour the dragonflys and sentiment with a water brush and spray inks...

You're done!

Inky Explore autumn card

Inky Explore Autumn card

PRODUCTS USED:
5x7" card base & layers
Ink sprays
Twine
Distress ink/oxides
Versamark clear
Gold embossing powder
Potting soil archival ink

HOW TO MAKE:

On a base layer place the inner parts of the 3 leaf easy frames (maple/oak/nettle) and spritz with a brown and yellow ink...

remove to reveal your white space and heat dry the ink...

Lay the outer of the frames around the white spaces and ink with fossilized amber and spiced marmalade distress inks/oxides...

Keeping the outers of the frames in place - over stamp in the leaf window with the ledger stamp using a brown ink (I used potting soil archival ink) only ink it up partially and do this free hand without a block as it's easier to control where you stamp the detail...

Using one of the border elements from the Doodle art mushroom stamp set, stamp some background detail using versamark clear and gold embossing powder - this is the background complete...

Stamp out the mushrooms in the potting soil brown and colour in - I used candied Apple and spiced marmalade distress with a water brush... 

Fussy cut them...

Add some twisted twine then glue the mushrooms down using a 3D Silicon glue, I like the Pinflair one. Then stamp the word Explore from the travel words, colour the edges, mount it and glue it on to finish off your card.
