One stamp set, three designs.

Good afternoon all and thanks for joining me. 
Today I have been having a play with a fabulous set of Stamps, 
Wildflowers, by Stampers Anonymous, Tim Holtz.


They are available from Craft Stash 



This is a quick and easy design .


I started by brushing some distress ink over a moon mask..
I used Picked Respberry and added a little 
Midnight blue Artistry ink. 


Next I flicked some seedless preserves ink and water.


Followed by some stamping using black Archival ink .


And a black sharpie line .


The sentiment and butterfly are from The summer blooms stamp set (it was sat on my desk )

Finally I added some stickles glitter glue. 

My second card is completely different .



This started off with distress Oxide ink and water .


I added the colours one at a time .


Drying the card each time , before adding the next colour. 


Followed by some water spritzing 


I then added a moon mask and some black soot distress ink 




This created my landscape. 



Next I added some wild flowers .




A sentiment and a couple of butterflies .


The finishing touch was some white dots with my Posca marker .

My third card is something I just made up today..
I do like to just play and so something a bit different .


I just felt like a change of colour ..
I know purple is the on trend colour but you know me 
And orange will always be my favourite 


I started with a circle die cut , 

Blended some orange and pink distress ink then flicked some water .



And stamped one of the wild flowers. 


On a separate piece of card I restamped the wild flower .


Then my next layer I blended the same inks and added more water spritzing .


I matted and layered the designs...
Now this is what I had,,,
But I didn’t want to stop here ..nice as it is..
So I added the decorated die cut 


Now that looks more designer...hope you agree...
The dots are glossy Accents...
and they will dry to a clear glaze . 
I do hope you like what I have created today..
I have certainly had a lovely time.

These are beautiful, you always use such lovely colours for your blending. I am very tempted to get the 12 new Distress Oxides they are so good for backgrounds and stamp so well too. XX
