Because it's been a school holiday here in Scotland, it has been an extended weekend, but I hope, wherever you are, that the last few days have been good for you. I've had a bout of sciatica ... probably brought on from packing boxes ... it is easing off now so I did spend a short time in the craft room yesterday making today's share.
Have you ever spotted a great idea, filed it in the old grey matter and then, when you come to use it, forget where exactly you saw it? Well, that's what happened to me yesterday!?!? I've just spent an hour or so trawling through hundreds of blogs, well, okay, I exaggerate, but it felt like hundreds! I finally remembered that I'd spotted this particular idea as a snippet card submission over on Pixie's Crafty Snippets Playground last week. Which means, thankfully, that I can now give Sally, Crafty Salutations, credit for being my inspiration today with this bright idea to moisten ink dusters and see what combinations result :)
Materials used:
- white card cut and scored to form a DL (3.9"× 8.2") size card
- snippets of white and black card for topper
- inky ink dusters for blue, green, red and brown inks
- sequin waste and Tim Holtz DI, Peacock Feathers
- Jet Black Archival Ink and stamps - Robin by Caroline, Keep Crafting, Thistle from Hobbycraft and Botanicals from We Are Memory Keepers
I'd like to submit this card to the following:
6th Lady Anne's Challenge - must have wings
Get Inky Challenge 13 : Birds, Bees, Flowers, Trees, Moon Above, and LOVE
Crafty Cardmakers #100 - Winged Things
The Crafty Bloggers Network September Challenge - Things With Wings
And last, but certainly not least, I'm hopping and skipping over to Pixie's Crafty Snippets Playground - Week 91 and see what Di, Parsnip and the Snippeteers have been up to :)
I wish you all a good night and a lovely day tomorrow.
Happy crafting,
