Observations For Creative Expressions ....

Hi everyone, today's make for Creative Expressions is a mini canvas using the Delicate Asters stamp sets and Sam Poole's Bubble Wrap A6 Stamp.



To colour the canvas I have used Distress Paints (Fired Brick, Spun Sugar, Picked Raspberry & Spiced Marmalade). Ive stamped the smaller flower image in the background using Distress Paint (Spun Sugar) and the Bubble Wrap stamp with Spiced Marmalade.


I've used a Distress Marker (Black Soot) to draw in the outer border and stem. The words are using the newly released Remnant Rub Ons.



The flower was stamped using Archival Ink (Jet Black) on left over cardstock using the above colours of Distress Paints, cut out/layered and an Ideaology Hitch Fastner added to the centre.

Until next time .... TFL x
