Hi everyone, just a very quick post from me today to share another AALL & Create card I made recently. I wasn't going to share this until later, but it was very important for me to make this post today so that I can post something special tomorrow ... watch this space!
I cut a 6.5" x 4.5" piece of stamping card, and created a smoosh background by inking up an acrylic block with three colours of Distress Oxide, spritzing with water and then "stamping" onto the card. I then stamped the focal flower in black and coloured the leaves with a Distress watercolor pencil, added a bit of background stamping and my sentiment. I also added a bit of shading to the right of the heart using DOX and the Elongated Hearts stencil, and some white Posca pen spatters. Finally I edged the finished panel in black and matted simply onto blue card stock.
Stamps: AALL & Create #896 Forget Me Not, #906 Art Notes, #531 Textured Florals;
Media: Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks (Salvaged Patina, Twisted Citron, broken China); Distress Watercolor Pencil (Twisted Citron); Versafine Clair (Nocturne, Morning Mist, Warm Breeze); Posca pen (white);
Tools: AALL & Create stencil #156 Elongated Hearts.
