The inks that I've used are fired brick and broken china Distress ink and black Archival. I edged a white card blank with the distress inks and then adhered a piece of Idea-Ology Kraft Resist paper to it. I attached some ribbon and stapled the small buses. I stamped the plaid pattern with the Distress inks and adhered it to the card. The bus was stamped with black Archival and water coloured with fired brick. I used my Dymo machine to make the Happy Birthday.
I'm entering my card in the following challenges

What a beautiful bus Hazel. Reminds me of one of the ones we saw actually working and carrying passengers when we visited a tramway museum (Crich in Derbyshire).
ReplyDeleteA lovely card in every way and what lovely colouring with the Distress Inks.
Thanks for joining us at Artful Times.
