Thinking of You…..

Hello there. I have a card to share using a brand of stamps I haven’t used for quite a while, and in fact some of the stamps I haven’t used at all before today:

I used a couple of the Card-io stamp sets to create this card….

I started by masking one corner of a piece of Canson Mixed Media card-stock – I find this blends inks quite nicely. Once masked, I used an Altenew ink set and blended the Cotton Candy with my blending brushes, and added some Rich Razzleberry to darken the corner a little.

Using Rich Razzleberry again, I stamped the thorny wreaths, then a vine/leaf branch. The bird cage is stamped with Cotton Candy, then I tried to ink the edges of the birdcage with the Rich Razzleberry to give some shading to the cage.

The bird in the cage stamped with Rich Razzleberry, another in Cotton Candy, and another in Peach Perfect.

I also sued some leaf stamps and stamped them in the lighter two colours around the thorny wreath.

The sentiment is from a stamp set from The Ton – out on my desk as creating a floral card too………….maybe for tomorrow.

I shall be entering the following challenges:

Color Throwdown – plum, pink, peach, white

Polkadoodle Challenge week 17 – anything goes

Challenge Up Your Life – animals
