Black Inspired by Nature

Stamp-n-play was yesterday and this was the result. We made a second plaque to go with this one which goes beside a framed picture. When I took the picture I hadn't framed it yet but its in a black simple frame. The three will look gorgeous together!

Dandelion Frame

I stopped quickly into a store yesterday and saw this stamp and knew immediately what I would do with it! Sometimes when I buy a stamp I know I would like it but it takes me some time to use it. NOT this one, its a gorgeous 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 (10.8 x 14) stamp. A FULL background which means I have to make my own envelope because it won't fit into an A2 size one. OH WELL! This card was sooo easy and its perfect. I brayered the background and stamped with black ink, added a sentiment, ribbon and photo corners, its done! Next time I'll mask off the right side and part of the top and again brayer the background.

Frosty Morning

I finally finished my create a scene card for Saturday Spotlight with hidden potential! FINALLY. I create scenes all the time and then when there's a challenge I come up blank, how sad is that! LOL. To enter the challenge you can use the link on the right. Try it its fun!
I brayered the background first and then stamped the fence and trees. The picnic table and house came last. I used a white gel pen on the trees and fence and then the glitter pen on top. Lastly I sprayed the entire image with the shimmer paint/alcohol combo to give a little extra glitter. IRL is so glittery!
