Good afternoon all,
I do hope your Friday is going well.
It is a lovely sunny day here and I have spent the morning taking
little Jenson for a lovely walk.
We are now home and relaxing
He is nearly 5 months old now, bless him.
Today I am going to share one of my recent tv samples with you.
It uses the stamp set #195 Flowers and Gears by Olga Heldwein
from AALL & Create.
And it matches the breadboard that I created too,
A gift and a matching card, what a lovely idea.
Here is how I created the card.
I started by stamping in brown ink and using clear embossing powder.
Notice the ink smudge in the lower right hand corner.
Don’t worry , we will hide it later
Next I painted the design using distress Oxide inks and water.
Then spritzed it with more water, I do love doing this.
Some extra splats of ink, see how the smudge of ink has disappeared.
I added the sentiment and some splats of brown ink.
Followed by some cog stamping. Just to add more detail in the background.
The finishing touches were some white ink to highlight areas, and charcoal pencil
to add shade.
What a difference these make.
Here is a closer look.
.
I do love floral stamps, and these have so much detail.

I had better go,
Nappy changing time.
Have a lovely weekend all.
Thanks once again for all your support
Much love and hugs
