The soft pastels on the mood board at Inkspirational inspired my choosing to make this card. As well I had been wanting to try a technique shown by Natasha Foote. I didn’t have anything to make my own stamps out of, so I improvised by using the Mandala Maker stamps by GKD and then colouring in the centers using a waterbrush on the bigger blocks and masking the smaller ones so I could use a small detail brush. When happy and it was dry I added the floral stamp, which is from an Altenew set, as is the sentiment. I cut the panel down a little so I could mat it with the black and then it was added to the card front. A simple card but it is quite effective visually I think.
My last card for today. I was a bit shocked to see the time and that it is getting dark outside. I had better go and feed our dog, who is too polite to say I’ve forgotten her. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you are all warm and dry.
