Hi and welcome to all my very talented and craft loving friends.
It's the first of the month yet again and time for a new challenge over at
Your host for this challenge is the lovely Carole and she would like to see Inky Backgrounds on your creations this month.
Here is what I made for my DT.
This is a 5"x7" size tent style crd.
I started by rubbing Blue Print Sketch Distress Oxide Ink down my card stock and then I stencilled a leaf design with Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Ink.
I then sprayed the inked design with water and some white pearl mica I made up in a spray bottle. Which doesn't show up much in the photo.
I then cut out my sentiment 5 times out of white card stock and glued together.
Lastly I splattered white gesso watered down for some speckles.
Thank you so much for your visit and precious time.
I really appreciate every visit and wonderful comment you make.
Lots of crafty love. JENNY.

Hi Jenny hope you are feeling much better,love your background design and choice of colours,the sentiment a fabulous focal point
The sentiment really stands out well against that lovely Distress Oxide background
A lovely background, I don't use my stencils enough - I should get them out and have a play I think.

Love that gorgeous inky background Jenny, beautiful stencilling in such lovely shades of blue, the bold white layerd sentiment really pops against it! A fabulouse clean and striking design.
