Thinking of you




I have another card to share using my newly learnt brayering technique, each piece that I do looks different from the last but I am very pleased with this little panel.

I wanted to enter the current challenge over at CAS Colours & Sketches which finishes in about 30 mins.


I started with a square of white card cut a circle from a post it for my sun , and started to brayer using So Saffron ink pad, this is quiet a light yellow so I had to go over a few times to build up the colour before applying Rose Red at the top.  I stamped my image from the Serene Silhouette set in soft suede and then mounted onto soft suede card.  I lined up my square on a Very Vanilla card base and with my Stamp -a- ma-jig lined up where I wanted my tree to be on the card base, I then stamped again on the card using soft suede ink.
The sentiment is from Moon Lake 

I am also going to add this to the Less is More challenge

  12. Another stunner Gail - this colour combination is just perfect for your brayered panel and silhouette and makes a nice change from black - a softer feel. You have totally nailed brayering - I'm so glad you enjoyed the class this week and found it so beneficial. Looking forward to seeing more examples of your new found skill!
