Untamed...Part 3

It was promised a couple of weeks ago but sometimes, good things come to those who wait and finally ~ here she is....in all her glory ~ my favourite of the three cards I made using this Gorjuss image from Funky Kits ... and also the one with the most work... *smiles* what can I say ~ I like to give myself a challenge.

This card is a crafting journey and brings together everything that I love most about making cards ~ the beautiful image made by using rubber stamps, that can make each and every card unique. My beloved distress ink pads by my crafting hero, Tim Holtz, the punches from Martha Stewart that have become invaluable to me when making a card. The backing papers that I love to touch and look at and sometimes can never quite bring myself to use them and finally, the fact that I get to work with such wonderful products and new techniques, that make every day a joy and make my fingers very messy and covered in ink!!!

SO, WHAT DID I USE?
COLOURING MEDIUMS: PROMARKERS, MARVY LE PLUME WATERCOLOUR PENS
DISTRESS INKS: BLACK SOOT, FADED JEANS, ANTIQUE LINEN
GREETING PLAQUE: CRAFTWORK CARDS
STAMP: GORJUSS UNTAMED BY SUGAR NELLIE AT FUNKY KITS
PAPERS: K & COMPANY
BUTTERFLY PUNCH: MARTHA STEWART
GLITTER: DISTRESS STICKLES ~ ANTIQUE LINEN, FADED JEANS

  1. All I can say is "WOW"!

    LOVE the Gorjuss image but I especially LOVE the distressing you did all around...the little touches with the flowers and butterflies really work nicely with the backing paper...

    VERY VERY impressive, baby!!! :* <333
