Always time for tea

Hello there

Today I'm sharing a card using several Giogiocraft stencils and Distress Oxide ink. 

I started with the macarons then masked them off to put the cup behind them. One I had stencilled the main shapes I spattered them with water to let the ink react and lift, leaving a bit of texture and added interest.

I added some grey Promarkers to give a bit of shadow and depth and masked off the images before adding some colourful spatter.

Mmm anyone else feeling a bit peckish?

Hope you have a good day. Thanks for stopping by xx

Just my type

Hello

A quick post today to share a card made with a Giogiocraft stencil and Derwent inktense pencils. I traced around the typewriter stencil and then built up the colours inside.


I shaved a little off the end of the pencils and diluted with water to get the ink for the splatters and finsihed it off with a text stamp from StampersAnonymous.



I enjoyed using the stencil this way so I might have an experiment with others to see if I can get the same effect. Watch this space!

Thank you for stopping by. Have a lovely day xx

Maneki-necko

Hello

I've been having a little play with some of the lovely stencils in my Giogiocraft advent calendar. First up is the little maneki-necko, beckoning cat, in the hope that 2021 brings us better fortune.

Difficult to get a decent photograph at this time of the year when there is so little daylight.

Thank you for stopping by. Hope the week brings you happiness and good fortune xxx
