Make a Difference by Donna Gray


Hi everyone,

Donna here today with a Brusho and Carabelle flower card for you, I thought I’d have a little play with the Brushos’ for a change.





  


What To Do:


Take a sheet of Strathmore Mixed Media paper, spritz with water, randomly sprinkle on a mixture of Brusho colours, dab with kitchen roll, dry with heat gun. Keep going until you’re satisfied with the background….remember less is more!

I used a messy writing stamp from Prima which I don’t think is stocked now but I’ve listed an alternative in the supplies list, stamp randomly onto the Brusho background.

Take a flower Carabelle stamp, stamp twice on separate white card with black Archival ink, fussy cut them out (one of the flower stamped images has been cut in half) then mount onto the background using glue.

Finishing touches include another Carabelle stamp for the ‘stem’, a brad for the centre of the flower and a Tim Holtz small talk sticker sentiment.



Supplies Used:


Strathmore Mixed Media Paper
Carabelle Studio Stamps - Ombrelines Aux Pistils
That’s Crafty! Clear Stamp Set - Textures Set 1 is a substitute for the Prima Messy Writing Stamp
Brushos
Tim Holtz Small Talk Sticker Book
White Cardstock
Black Archival Ink
Spray Bottle
Adhesive 


Hope you like it
