Ready,Steady,Stamp


The Ready,Steady,Stamp challenge this week is
1. Letter M
2. Colours purple/pink/green/black
3. Stamped flowers
4. Gesso on your background
5. Rubber
It seemed like I had known in advance of this challenge. I had been playing around with some Ecoline colours that a friend gave me for my birthday and the papers were still on my table. The piece I stamped on had colours pink and green on it ,I stamped the pennyblack flower stamp in black ancient page. The green background was another ready made piece, just ran it through the cuttlebug and dry brushed it with white gesso. Chipboard letter M for the word moments. Had to think a while for the rubber element but I had just cut up a new sheet of stamps and the waste was still in the bin. I did try to die cut it but wouldn't do it so handcut the photo corner.
Thought I had finished but the girl image was just laying there from another project and seemed to match perfectly! Mounted it all up on some purple card.

  4. It's fabulous, I love how the muted tones match the vintage image too. I like how you've used the gesso, great effect.
