Greetings! I hope you are having a great weekend. I had some fun getting inky creating an 8x8" collage for my post here this week. I started by doing a little stenciling for my background and then added stamps from
Paris Exposition stamped in Jet Black archival and then a few more from
Ephemera Backgrounds stamped in Sepia archival. I stamped the three main photo stamps in Jet Black archival and deckle cut the edges making them look like old time photos. I added a bunch of vintage style embellishments and finished it off with a few sprays of color mists. This was sort of a first try at this style and I had a blast playing with all the inks and elements. It didn't come out exactly like I hoped it would though, so I think I need some practice. Practicing sounds like inky fun :)
Thanks so much for stopping by today. Looking forward to seeing your entries into our January referral program.
