A bold statement

Today I am sharing with you another of the fabulous stamp and die sets which Crafters Companion are launching on Hochanda on 18/19th June. This card features the Dandelon stamp from the set of the same name.

 

This card was so much fun to make and I got to use my new set of Brushos which I got for my birthday.

 

I made the background first by spraying some Sheena stamping card thoroughly with a spritzer. I then threw on some brilliant red brusho and sprayed the card again, then I picked the card up and held it one way and then the other to let the colour run, when I was happy with the way the colour had spread I added some rose red brusho along one edge of the card to make this edge darker and sprayed it with more water. Again I manipulated the card to make the colour run and create the desired effect. Finally I left the card to completely dry.

 

I stamped the Dandelions using black VersaFine ink and cut the card to size.

 

The sentiment was cut from black card using the sentiment dies from the Crafters Companiion, flutterby, scattered Butterflies dies.
