Many congratulations to Emily who is Featured stamper today. I hadn't seen Emily's gallery before and it's such a huge treat, stunning cards and lovely and distinctive style. Congrats Emily!
I love the striking style of it and the wonderful colours. I used a different stamp, created a different background and changed the colours.
For my background I used a Hero Arts manuscript stamp inked with Colorbox Orchid ink and randomly stamped over the card blank. Over this I used a sponge to give a distressed appearance. I don't know if Emily has used a background stamp on her base card but I love the effect of it. I did the sponging with more of the orchid ink followed by brown. The image was stamped in Orchid and and I dry brushed some brown ink in some areas over the top, added the sentiment, two brads and the ribbon and mounted on the card. I distressed the thin strip of card in the same way and edged with a corner rounder punch. After attaching this I pierced under it with the help of a Tim Holtz ruler. TFL. Chris
