Water

Hello there,

Wow, how the weeks pass by - it's time for our next challenge over at Cardz 4 Guyz and this week Kim has chosen the theme of 
'WATER'

Now this one presented a problem - I had a total blank when I thought about which stamps I could use for this one, so decided to improvise instead. Here's what I came up with for my DT inspiration ...


I began with a 6x6" white card blank and added a slightly smaller white layer which I ran through a dotty embossing folder (sort of looks like bubbles, I thought). 

The top layer is a print I pulled from my geli plate - I used Tumbled Glass ink first, covered the geli plate, then removed a little of the ink with a piece of scrunched up paper, then pulled the first print. I repeated the same process with a little Broken China distress ink (sort of looks like water, I thought). 

The quote was printed on my pc, together with the little water droplets, which I covered with glossy accents to make them look realistic. I added a stamped 'Get Well Soon' quote, together with a piece of ribbon and a few aurora self adhesive crystals. I hope it fits the theme!

Hope you can come and join us with your own 'Water' themed projects.
Hugz, Jan xx
