this time using the fab bag die that i saw used by
the wonderfully talented Candy Colwell use here,
the wonderfully talented Candy Colwell use here,
I loved her make so much, i decided to have a go myself...
So using the same palette as my tag , found here,
I used paper from a Tim stack,
die cut the bag shape,
and got distressing!
I added lots of distress ink,
then added the chicken wire stamp, randomly
love this stamp
love this stamp
masking off the sides of the bag,
then I clear embossed some butterflies from the Tim papillion set,
I dont know why, but i love clear embossing!!!
To complete i added die cut movers and shapers dress form, inked
and overstamped with papillion background
and some harlequin border left from another project
and this wonderful sentiment.
have a fun and inky day!
Great idea to focus on one colour as it really gets you looking at the detail of the design. Great work/inspiration Trace. Hugs, Buttons x

Love the monochrome palette too and I'm becoming a fan of green - for years I hated it! Love that little bag - I found the die less than half price so you've made me want to play with it even more (when it eventually arrives!).
