It seems ages since I made something just for fun, with no
specific purpose. Its been all Christmas cards, gifts, specific birthday cards…
Tonight I looked at some of my favourite challenge blogs for inspiration and
came up with this.
The stamp is by Paper Artsy/Inkadinkado (it says both on it)
and it’s the first time I’ve used it. I used a brush to stipple ‘Salty Ocean’
Distress Ink onto a manila tag and then stamped the image, slightly off centre
, in ‘Chipped Sapphire’. Actually the off-centre bit was a happy accident!! I
stamped again onto white card and paper pieced fragments of the image. I edged
the tag in silver pen and added eyelets. The alcohol ink background was a leftover
and I added a ribbon border.
I’d like to enter this for
