Allsorts Challenge 9 - A Sketch

There's a great sketch to follow over at Allsorts this week designed by Debs and there's a super prize on offer too! So it's well worth taking part.

Deb's Sketch:-


My card:-


Background papers are from the Porcelain Collection from Basic Grey and stitched onto the card using my sewing machine.

Stamps:- "Whispers" - Penny Black
"Field of Sky" - A Stamp in the Hand

Distress Inks:- Fired Brick, Tattered Rose and Vintage Photo

After colouring the flowers with Copics I covered the petals with Distress Stickles (worn lipstick) and when that had dried I covered them again with Diamond Glaze.

I made a simple banner and added a rub-on (Melissa Frances) and finished off with Card Candy and a black gem.

  3. Love the distress inks again on this one, and the flowers really pop! You've had a really productive couple of days. I spent most of yesterday sorting out my sewing machine which was gathering dust in the garage, finally got it working and have managed to make one card, but it's for ICS so can't post it yet! Enjoy your Sunday. xxxx
