Wine Stamp Card

Using the Rollagraph wheel and the script stamp I rolled it into the versamark ink and rolled over my base card several times to create a watermark background pattern on the card.
the wine stamp was inked with Adirondack cranberry ink then using a damp brush I moved the ink around on the image until I got the effect I wanted. I tore along both the top and bottom of the image then embossed along the top tear line with gold detail power.
Again using the cranberry Adirondack ink I sponged around the rest of the edges to create a distressed effect.
I used the trio ribbon tags by spellbinders and stamped Thinking of You on top of is and attached it with a white ribbon.
I finished the card by edging it with a gold pen.




This shot is to show you a close up image of the card base and the effect you get by using the Rollagraph wheel with versamark onto a dark coloured card.

JustRite Stampers Card

I bought a couple of JustRite Ensemble stamp sets, this is one of the Oval baby sets, some really cute designs in them I also bought the Devine oval set with the wooden stamper.
I thought I should get into practice of making baby cards again in light of Lauren (daughter) expecting a little one in July.
