Welcome back. I have another card using the fabulous background stamp from the August Simon Says Stamp card kit.
This time I used a dark blue card stock and embossed with Wow clear embossing powder.
The stamp didn't get a good cover towards the bottom edge, so instead of throwing this away I decided to find a way to still use it.
The solution? Cut the piece down so the missing area has been removed. Then cut this piece in half and add a black band to the middle. This was it looks like the piece is big enough for the whole card front :)
This was also the perfect spot for my sentiment.
The image is water coloured with Gansai Tambi Starry Night palette. These paints are highly pigmented and I managed to cover over most of the outline while painting. To add the detail back in I used a black gel pen.
I partially die cut the centre out using a circle die, then fussy cut the rest.
I like how this turned out. What about you?
See you next week. TTFN Jude xx
