Here is what I made for today's reminder card, my "B"s this time around are": Blue Background, Butterfly, Blossoms and Bow ...maybe black label sentiment?
Light Touch Stamp// MFT Label maker Sentiments (retired) - Similar // French Script BG stamp - Similar // Tumbled Glass Distress Ink // Distress Markers // Silk Ribbon // Bristol Vellum // Versafine Onyx Ink
I love how easy these brushstroke stamps are to use! I started out by masking the edges of my Bristol Vellum card stock piece, then I stamped an acrylic block which I've inked with Tumbled Glass ink onto the paper. Before removing the mask, I used Stampin Up's French Script background stamp (retired) - this one by Crafty Individuals is similar - on the background. It's really hard to see in the photo, but you can see the words if you take a close look.
The stamp Light Touch by Penny Black (available brand new in my Etsy shop) was colored with a variety of Distress Markers, spritzed with water and stamped onto the card stock using my Tonic Stamp Platform. This was done after removing the painters tape. The ink was so intense (as you can see on the photo) and stayed wet long enough that I was able to stamp this image 2 more times, getting a shade lighter each time. I haven't made cards yet with those two stamped images, but I am sure they will be used sooner or later.
The label sentiment is by MFT, another retired set. This one by Altenew is similar and it is also available in a Spanish version. Now if I I only could find a German version of this somewhere!!
