Penny Black "Delicate Florals 40-103" Card

I have a thing for Penny Black stamps.  I really don't care whether they're wood mounted, slapstick or clear,  I just love their designs.

For this card, I've been playing with a Penny Black stamp set called "Delicate Florals" (40-103), which is a foam mounted/red rubber cling stamp set with three designs on the one sheet.

I stamped the floral image a couple of times using Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" green ink.  Using the same ink, I stamped the sentiment, which is from a Crafters Companion stamp set called "Fly Away" from their "Fluttery By Collection".

I used "Festive Berries" Distress Oxide Ink for the flowers, starting with a diluted ink and building up the colour, applied with a paint brush.  For the leaves, I used "Rustic Wilderness" green ink.

Week 14 - 52 Week Mini Art Card / Tag Challenge 2018

It's April already, time really has flown this year.  Thank you to all those following this challenge.  I am loving seeing your creations.

The prompt for Week 14 is "Fly".  I thought this one could be interpreted in several different ways.

The background of this tag was made using a brayer and several shades of Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks.

The sentiment is from a stamp called "Fly Away / Flutterby Collection" by Crafters Companion stamped in Versafine ink.

The wings were created by using Distress Inks on Yupo paper.  I then die cut the paper using Stampin' up "Butterflies Thinlits".  The girl is from a Tim Holtz "Paper Dolls" pack coloured  using Promarkers.  Finally I added white and black dots to the background and then inked the edges.
