Good Morning everyone and welcome to another new week, boy do they fly by!
So today i am sharing the first card i made for my brothers birthday. Some of you know that as a dairy farmer he likes to work with rare breeds and some of the older breeds, they produce less milk but higher quality ideal for Cornish Clotted Cream.
Although not rare he does have a couple of highland cows in his herd. Its always difficult to keep coming up with different ideas for the men in my family but found this lovely highland cow stamp by sheena, lots of masking and we get a herd of highlands!
8x8 card blank, image all matted onto chocolate brown cardstock. Computer printed sentiment.
I first stamped the front highland cow, then masked with pebeo drawing gum, then stamped the 2 behind and then masked them and kept going until filled the page. I used lighter inks on the back cows, i used colorbox chalk inks to stamp them all. I then carefully removed the drawing gum and added a little definition using inktense pencils.
Just a close up. Although its a pretty simple card it was time consuming.
Items used:
Sheena Douglass 'Highland Dinner' stamp
Colorbox chalk inks
Derwent Inktense pencils
Pebeo drawing gum
