An ATC this morning and this one draws inspiration from the May challenge over at the Graphicus Blog which is all about Travel and the colour Blue. They have a fab prize up for grabs but you need to get your entry in by the 31st May!
Details: I’ve used distress inks and a brayer to colour the background paper which was then stamped. The bicycle image was spotlighted with a bit of Stampbord coloured with alcohol inks, stamped with part of the image and then etched to show some highlights.
I have another project for you later – What two in one day? Well this one is for the Instyle Stamps blog hop and I am really excited to show you the cute image that is being released today, very sweet.
Materials:
Stamp – Royal Langnickel; Studio G Alpha
Inks – VersaFine Onyx black and Sepia brown; Distress inks; Black Stazon
Usual Suspects – Paper trimmer; Glue dots; silicone glue
Other – Brayer; Brads; Stampbord; Alcohol inks; etching tool

Hi Kim!
I abseloutly love your latest creations 🙂 I am wondering if the sentiment you have used comes from Studio G Alpha as well? I´m going to make a wedding card for a couple that love cycling and traveling. I was also asked to keep the card in blue tones! I think I might have to borrow some of your ideas from this ATC!!!

I also have to add that I think the "Enjoy the journey" sentiment will work great on a wedding card! A little different, but still quite romantic if you think about it…. 🙂
