Cardz 4 Galz

The theme at Cardz 4 Galz is black and white + one bright colour. This gave me the perfect chance to use some of the new release stamps from Happy Little Stampers.

I stamped the dandelions and sentiment  in Versafine Onyz Black. Then added colour with a stamp from a SSS set. The white background looked a little too stark so I dug out my spritzing tool and spritzed  black and yellow markers over it. A narrow black mat completed the card.

Dandelions

I just love this dandelion stamp from Lavinia Stamps. It was the first one I bought and is so easy to use and get different effects. The green and brown one was stamped with Versafine Vintage Sepia and Spanish Moss and simply mounted on brown pearlecent card then onto green. The second one I brayered the background with Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Vintage Photo and Mustard Seed, then stamped the dandelions in versafine Onyx Black. The lighter ones are simply a second image.
