Playing with distress inks..

I used a Papertrey Inks background stamp for this one, white heat embossed, then just blended various shades of distress inks over the embossing to create the background


The flowers were also from Papertrey Inks, and I used the same method of colouring them, a blending tool and an ink pad, and I love the result. 


Well, update on the video (I really must stop talking about this, I am raising everyone's expectations!), I finally got the hang of editing. Did a voiceover, got rid of Mickey Mouse, upped the speed a bit so that you didn't all die of boredom watching it..........result. Yeah. Except that it turns out our broadband isn't really up to the job, so now I have a man coming to install fibre optic super-fast stuff, and he can't come until September 30th. What a downer, I was so pleased to have got the hang of editing it, and now I can't upload it to show anyone. Ah well, I will just carry on making a few more. Practice makes perfect. Lights! Camera! Action!

See you tomorrow x
