Hi everyone!
Here's a card that I've made just for fun for challenges: not something that happens very often nowadays! My New Year's resolution is to use more of my older stamps and in this card I've done exactly that. Yay! :) The sentiment comes from a Chocolate Baroque- set and the rose is a freebie that once came with Craft Stamper. It's my first time using it. I've colored the rose with Copics and mounted it on a bg made with Distress Inks, water and transparency film -I "stamped" with the sheet of transparency. The technique is called "ink smooshing" if you are interested in finding videos. :)
In Finland Valentine's Day is not only for lovers but we actually celebrate "Friendship Day" and sending cards to friends and family is very common on this occasion. You'll be seeing many Friendship-themed cards in my blog the next couple of weeks! :)

ReplyDeleteThis is so artsy, Nonni! The black edging on the rose sets it off perfectly against that fabulous smooshed background.
