Friends Collage

This card was created with a digital words stamp from Hero Arts.  I may use a computer at work all day, but this was out of my comfort zone.  It took me several trys to get this image to print; and once I got it to print, I struggled to get it to print the second time.   I printed the words on white cardstock and distressed it with Ranger Tea Dye Distress Ink and a stipple brush.  The words are layered on pink cardstock.  The butterfly was stamped with black Versafine ink on pink cardstock.  White Inkessentials pen was used to outline the wings.  The words from Technique Tuesday were stamped with black Versafine ink on beige cardstock and layered on pink cardstock punched with a scalloped punch from Fiskar.  Gold dew drops were added to the butterly's body.  The butterly stamp is from Expressions in Ink.

Magenta Collage

Magenta is one of my favorite stamp lines.  This image is out of my comfort zone, but I was determined to use it.  The image was stamped in black Versafine ink.  The bird and branch were colored with Prisma pencils.  The background was stippled with Royal Blue Versa Color ink.  White Inkessentials pen was used to add some white to the bird and the floral swirls.  The base cardstock is beige and was stamped with a floral swirl stamp from Hero Arts in Polar Blue Versa Color ink.  The stamped image was layered on black and then blue cardstock.  Words are from Technique Tuesday and were stamped with the same Royal Blue Versa Color ink.
