Today I am showcasing the fabulous Think and Wonder stamp set, placing the children against an inky background.
I began by applying Drawing Gum to the background and allowing to dry. Once completely dry I applied Salty Ocean and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks to a non-stick craft sheet, spritzed with water and mopped up the beads of ink.
I also included a touch of stencilling to the background using Salty Ocean Ink to give a further layer of interest.
A pop of red paint has been added here and there along with the sentiment 'Friendship' from the Skating Emporium Stamp Set.
My fellow team members have also created wonderful pieces of art to inspire you further along the blog hop.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Tracy x x
