Hi folks hope today is a good one for you. I decided to give myself a little therapy, these last couple of days I have been busy stamping and this is the first card that I managed to complete. I have used the easel card fold the papers are a mixture of MME and K@Co the stamp is from Serendipity which I have had for some time but never inked and is a Geranium. I have used Tim Holtz Walnut Stain to stamp the image the distressing around the edges is Old Paper ink. I used a damp brush to spread the colour then for the first time ever I tried the bleaching effect but I am going to practice a little more because I enjoyed it. I have added lace, flowers, pearls and a butterfly double mounted. I hope you like it and if you have any advice on any of the techniques I have used please let me know.
I am entering this one into the following challenges:
Gingersnaps Celebrate
C.R.A.F.T Mothers Day or Flowers (I chose flowers)
