Single Water Coloured Stamps

This card was made using a 'Sheen Douglas' stamp and distress ink.


Once the image is stamped, use a small paint brush slightly damp to pull the ink to the
areas in the image you want to colour. 
With the top image I used tapestry stamps to create a background for my mat and layer to sit on.



This image is stamped in the same way. 
To create the aged look framing the stamped image, again I used distress inks,
it draws your eye to the image.




You can use up scraps of ribbon on the corners of pictures, just to add that touch of glam.
I think these images look great, they are quick to accomplish and look diffent with every ink colour used.

Tell me what you think!

Me to You Christmas

A selection of  'Me to You' decoupage Christmas cards.
 
 
This card has been layered onto snow flake design paper and embossed.  Edged with blue ink, polka dot ribbon placed in the corner. Doily has been edged in blue and pink ink to match design. 

Flourish has been cut and a polka doodle flower with a me to you brad placed in the centre.
Another 'Me to You' decoupage, with three snow flake punched with small bead embellishment in centre mounted onto a flourish.
 
'Me to You sentiments.
 
 
Again a doily has been used as a layer behind the decoupage and a silver ink pad used to edge it.


Pink ink pad to edge the backing layer and blue ink pad to edge the decoupage circle.



Blue organza ribbon to add a touch of luxury to the corner and Me to You sentiment in opposite corner.
