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.

Katzelkraft stamps 'elephant von gogh'

Arty thank you

Good Morning everyone

I bought these fab art equipment stamps a while back in a sale but thought they were perfect to make a couple of little thank you cards for crafty friends who sent some crafty bits for my nieces to create art with.

4x4" I had these shaped die cuts left over on my desk and thought would be perfect for the base so i joined 2 together with a little hinge on the back one for my shaped card blank.  I lightly stencilled black soot oxide ink through a splodge stencil for my background - i wanted to keep it muted so my rainbow of arty stamped items stood out. 

I stamped the images onto white card with black ink, watercoloured with distress oxide inks and cut them out.    I then got arranging them and adhered into place.  I had these fab chipboard stickers with arty saying which are the perfect finishing touch - the little arty flower image is from the same chipboard set. 

Version 2 the quote and heart are both chipboard.
