Anniversary card – misty grasses

anniversarySept2013sml

I have a few anniversary cards to make in September so I made 3 similar but ever so slightly different by changing the colours slightly or the shading (only showing one here).  The photo doesn’t really pick up the shading very well.  I was trying to capture a  misty Autumnal morning effect.  To get the misty effect spray a very fine mist of water over the image as this reacts with the inks I used and diffuses them slightly.

 

Inks:  Distress inks Tumbled glass, Weathered wood, Frayed burlap, Stamping up Mellow moss and Crumb cake

Card:  white card

Stamps:  Judikins bamboo, Carity (?) flock of birds, Rubber stamp tapestry (small leaf), Stampin up Cheer and wishes, English stamp company Oriental grasses (reversed by stamping onto brayer)
