More than just stamping #117




I'm an addicted rubber stamper.  No hesitations whatsoever - give me a stamp and I'm a happy girl!... but I know not everyone is confident to create with stamps.  So, today's creation is to show you that there is more to art than just stamping.

I've had this background made for some time... just waiting for the right project.  It was created using Distress Paints with generous amounts of paint applied and then spritzed with water and then left a long time to dry saturated with paint.  Love the splodges and the way the wet paint has mixed.

Today I have used a peel-off sticker - white of funky flowers.  I've simply laid a selection of flowers onto my cardstock and then used some of the little circles and dots to add some movement.  I've added some white gel shading inside the flowers and leaves and also used it to add a border all round.

Then mount onto black and onto a 5x7 card.

hope you like it!

happy crafting

I really love the white peel-offs on the darker splodgy background. It is so effective. Must put the white peel-offs on my wish list!

I'm a big fan of Peel-offs - particularly black and white - you can get some fabulous dramatic effects with them. Jane :-)
