Hi Friends, Jeanne chose a gorgeous water color photo with purples and greens to inspire us this week at Inspired by all the little Things #19. I had an older wood mounted Inkadinkado Hydrangea stamp hidden in my stash so I dug it out for this card. (Love using older supplies so not to waste the money I spent!)
I stamped the images on water color paper with distress inks and lightly spritzed them to let the ink run slightly. If you put too much water the flowers turn into blobs! Hahaha.
I then die cut the paper into a tag with SSS tag dies. I die cut a SSS hello die from black card stock and black fun foam intending to layer them but I ended up just using the foam cut. It looks cool and different for a change. I mounted the tag on a piece of grey patterned paper and added twine and sequins.
I hope you play along with us this week! Thanks for visiting!
Kim
Perfect amount of spritzing Kim, this is so Artsy:))
ReplyDeleteI echo Laura Jane. Perfect amount of water and the colors are so beautifully vivid. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love how soft the edges are - you dont loose the detail of the design either. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteYou always seem to have just the right stamp to use with these inspiration photos! Your hydrangeas are beautiful and looks like you got the water to stamp ratio down pat. I love the wood grain and the bold "hello", too. Some of the older stamps are too good to give up and this looks like one of them. I sure have a lot of those and sometimes they just have to come out to play!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Love the tag layout.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is so pretty, Kim! I love your take on the inspiration photo!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love the subtle woodgrain patterned paper background too- it really completes it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful take on the inspiration photo! Love it!
