To make my card I first inked up an acrylic block using Zig Clean Color real brush pens. I simply scribbled the makers on top of the block, spritzed with water and then stamped the block onto Strathmore Bristol Vellum cardstock. I let the ink dry before stamping the boat using versafine onyx ink. The boat and wheel stamps are both from Just for Fun Rubberstamps. The sentiment is an old retired one from Stampin Up. The wheel was stamped using Distress ink Broken China. I finished off the card by tying some May Arts Natural Burlap twine around the card.
I also made another quick and easy card (couldn't stop playing "I spy something beginning with B" :)
For this card my "B" is a butterfly. I used the Tim Holtz Mixed Media Butterflies Stamps and Stencil Set by Stampers Anonymous. I used this same set on Tuesday's card, if you missed that card an would like to see another way of using this set, you can see it HERE. To make this card I inked a piece of Neenah Solar white 80lb card stock using Distress Ink Evergreen Bough (the same ink I used on Tuesday's card), then placed one of the stencil patterns (which is part of the stamp set) onto the card stock and added a little more of the same ink to create a design. Using the same ink again, I stamped the sentiment, butterfly and hearts. Distressed the edges using a distressing toolthen matted with black card stock and distressed those edges as well. To finish off this card I added a sticker sentiment from Tim Holtz's Metallic Quotations set. This was then adhered to a white Neenah card base.

Papercrafters' Linky Party 4
A big thank you to everyone that joined in last week's linky party. I'm having lots of fun visiting your blogs and meeting new crafty friends. Carole, if you read this I am so sorry I wasn't able to comment on your entry....I get a white screen when trying to comment, it probably is because my blog isn't signed up to comment on accounts requiring google plus. I did see your lovely entry, and I thank you as well for sharing that gorgeous cat ATC!
