Number

Hello!

I try and play along at CASology whenever I can and this week's cue card is Number.  I have had this Penny Black number die for ages but not got round to using it yet so had to have a play....


I hadn't realised until I made this card that Kymona had used the same die.....great minds :)

I inked up a piece of cardstock with a range of distress inks - Seedless Preserve, Dusty Concord, Salty Ocean and Peacock Feathers and splattered watter over it to create a mottled look.  I then cut it out with the die and layered up on a few layers.  I combined the die with this fab sentiment from My Favourite Things.  The painted look prompted me to add some splatters in the corners.

I hope you like my inky number card.  This die is great fun....

Thanks for stopping by,

Sarah x

  6. Great colours was the first I saw and then the beautiful white edge of the wish-diecut; that works perfect! Hugs, Gerrina

  10. Gorgeous colours, they totally caught my eye in the CASology gallery. And loving the corner splatters, such a cool idea. Funny how we can have a die or stamp sitting around for ages before we use it, yet we can't wait for it to arrive......
