We all have an artist within us

Good Morning everyone

Today im sharing a card i made for a friend using Katzelkraft stamp 'elephant van gogh'

5x7" card made from cream card and nesting dies.  I  die cut another piece of cream card into  a frame and took the middle section to create my background - on this piece i added cosmic shimmer glossy glaze through a splat stencil and let it dry - it has a lovely translucent glossy finish.  Once dry i lightly inked over the top with black soot distress ink.  I added the frame to the cardfront with 2mm foam tape.

I stamped the elephant  in black onto white card, watercoloured with distress inks, cut out and added to the card front.

I had these arty supplies left over from a previous project which i had watercoloured with oxide inks so I arranged them around the elephant.  A chipboard quote saying 'we all have an artist within us' was added to finish.   


Items Used:
Katzelkraft stamps 'elephant von gogh'
Creative expression Jane davenport stamps 'CEJDCS023' 'HeArt Supplies'
Stamperia chipboard 'DFLCB24' 'Atelier des Arts
Distress inks & distress oxides
Cosmic shimmer glossy glase 'daydream yellow'
woodware splat stencil
Nesting dies

Thank you all for popping by once again, i do appreciate your visit.  Hugs Emmax
