Here's my card for this week's
Less is More which uses one of my favourite stamp from last year, a
gate by Stamp Addicts. The background was brushed with a mixture of purple inks and then heavily sprayed with water; the moon was masked off. I inked my dotty stamp with the same purples and added some texture to the background. The foliage either side comes from a branch stamp and the sentiment is embossed with Adirondack Eggplant. The mirri layer is silver, it looks more gold here!
That gate stamp looks superb against that purple sky Anne, the dotty stamp has been used really effectively too!
ReplyDeleteGreat job !
