Beautiful Dahlia .

A couple of weeks ago I was lucky to have been picked as one of the winners  in the February challenge over at Penny Black & More my lovely gift was a £15 gift voucher from Stamp Addicts  I chose this beautiful Dahlia background stamp which is quite large and unmounted which I love. I did the distress ink resist technique , I love this technique stamping in versa mark and white embossing and then using your distress ink pad to blend over the top..  I cut myself  a tag with a metal die that I got from China,  i stamped Thank You onto my tag with versa mark ink pad then added white embossing powder and heat set it. The Thank You  stamp is from a very old set of stamps called Card Wishes and is from See-D’s stamps there’s 22 sentiment stamps in this set , I havnt used them in years. I inked a little ribbon bow the same colour distress ink pad I used on my background and added a love heart sequin to finish.

                                                       
The card underneath was made the same way but this time I just used a different colour, I cut a piece of white card to fit  across my image I stamped my sentiment again in versa mark added some white embossing powder and heat set it , this stamp is also from See-D’s stamps , I used my distress ink pad to cover the sentiment.
