pamper yourself

Just Us Girls #688 – Photo/ Mood Board Week

All these tiny stamps came from a Hero Arts set called Bubble Bath, which I’ve only used once before. The first time I used them I didn’t have the dies, but purchased them later. Noticed today that one of the dies is faulty so will have to see if they can replace it.

I made my own stencil using a window die which I cut down to six apertures. I sponged Tattered Rose and Spun sugar initially but added a small amount of Victorian Velvet in a few places. I spritzed it with water and laid a stencil over the top pressing it down. I had hoped to get a bit of texture but it didn’t quite work as planned. I stamped all the tiny images onto the cut outs from the window, coloured them using pencils and Sakura Glaze and the die cut them. Once cut they were glued to the squares. As the flower die is the one that is faulty I stamped the flower here and there directly to the panel and coloured in with glaze pens. Once the panel was ready I added it to card front and then added the frame on top. I’m not sure about the end result but most likely it will grow on me as so often happens. My cleaning lady thought it was cute as did my hubby.

Thanks for taking a look and I hope your day is going well. It is so hot here that being outside is exhausting, but it is drying my laundry really fast.

    1. Thank you. I almost ruined it as the stencil is one I’ve used before even though it is made from card stock and it still had some inks on it. When I spritzed those inks started to run and I had to mop up really fast before they changed my pinks. Lesson learned LOL.
