Good morning!
Well, here we are, half way through April so it's time to remind you of this months current theme over at Penny Black and More Challenges which is
Black and White Plus One.
On this piece of art work I've used Penny Black stamps - 1999L Letter background, 30-416 Happy Thoughts, 40-137 Brick Wall and 40-511 Crimson Blush.
I've stamped this piece with Versafine onyx black ink and covered it quickly with clear embossing powder to seal it.
I stamped the sentiment with a clear versamark ink pad and topped that with black embossing powder so that it was nice and crisp.
The brick wall stamp has been stamped with the clear versamark pad and embossed with clear embossing powder to show the white of the paper underneath through it when I applied the aqua pen and glycerine.
My "plus one" is a Spectrum Noir aqua pen in the colour of spice which I have used diluted on the flower with a paint brush and with glycerine on the background so that the brick wall design came through nicely.
A white pen gave the final touches.
Do join us over at Penny Black and More Challenges
with our theme this month of Black and White Plus One.

Very pretty Leanne and a gorgeous Rose which I also have. The brick background pops really well, I'm yet to be totally happy with results using glycerin and fear I may be too heavy handed with it.

A gorgeous card Leanne, love the rose and what a great backdrop you created with the brick wall and script.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind comment on my card as well, wish I could bring on spring and sunshine with my card, but we're expecting snow and sleet today! At this point I am ready to move somewhere south!
Such a amazing card, Leanne!
