I must admit I had intended to use a different image on this card, but when I actually got the intended stamp out it was too big! Not to worry this image deserves to be used more than once.On this card I used the mask directly on to my base card (brave eh?) and stippled the background again with Adirondack inks before using my black Versefine to stamp the main image.
This time to frame the scene I used a gold peel off frame. I was sure that somewhere in my box I had a sheet of frames that was bought ages ago and never used. I couldn't believe my luck when the frame was just the right size for the image - not often that happens!!
The light is terrible here at the moment - my card is much more effective in real life - honest.
After the bravery of stippling and stamping directly on to my card I was really please to find that my card fits the challenge at the One Stop Craft Challenge. Wow how wonderful to be one of the first for a change.
