Botanicals by Lynne Moncrieff

 Hello

Although I worked with Black Pearl Ink, there is an airiness to this small hanging. 

Supplies

That's Crafty! Clear Stamp Set Dried Botanicals Set 1
That's Crafty! Surface MDF Panel 6"x6" Pack 3
That's Crafty! Medium Walnut Ink Powder
That's Crafty! Medium White Gesso
That's Crafty! Multi-Purpose Craft Adhesive
That's Crafty! Pearl Ink Black
US ArtQuest Mica Tile
Archival Ink Pad Jet Black
Extras: cotton rag paper, handmade paper scrap, twine, twig, sewing machine

Instructions

Small drops of Black Pearl Ink were applied to the cotton rag paper and generously misted with water, allowing to air dry. Onto a scrap of Lokta paper add a teeny amount of Walnut Ink Powder and mist with water, again leave to air dry. Also use the Walnut Ink Powder to stain a round tag.

Place tag onto Lokta paper, aligning so the stem will run down onto the Lokta paper - use a paper clip to hold in place or a stamping platform. Stamp with Jet Black ink. Adhere Mica Tile over focal image and finally stamp the word Botanicals onto scrap paper.

Machine stitch the panels to cotton rag paper and then adhere to the MDF panel which has a quick application of white Gesso.

Punch two holes, threading with jute twine, attaching to twig.

Thank you for visiting.

Wishes
