I've recently won this lovely AALL & Create stamp at the Allsorts Challenge. I've also been having a 'play' with some preloved Distress Inks I bought before Christmas - I know I'm a bit late to the party but I've only just discovered the joys of crafting with Distress Ink.
To make this card I used:
DL white matt card blank
AALL & Create 'Gem of a Plant' stamp
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics' die
Distress Inks - Mustard Seed, Wild Honey, Spiced Marmalade & Ripe Persimmon
Versafine Onyx Black ink
Snippet of white matt card
I stamped the Distress inks onto my craft mat, spritzed them with water and laid the card on top to pick up the colour. I let the panel dry and then placed it into my MISTI before stamping the flower a couple of times to get a good depth of colour. I used the largest stitched rectangle die to trim the panel - moving the die three times to cut the top, middle and bottom of the panel. The panel was then attached to the front of the card blank.
I am entering the following challenges:
Allsorts - Anything Goes
Ally's Angels - Anything Goes
Daisy Chain Challenge - No Design Paper
Love to Craft - Anything Goes
Pearly Sparkles Challenge - Something Old, Something New (I used my old MFT die and my new stamp)
We Love Stamping - Anything But Square
