Well, that means more time to share my latest creations with you...
This is the lovely stampset: Sense of time. It lends itself beautifully to experimenting with embossing, sponging, and collage effects.
I have stamped all of these clock faces with versamark and clear embossing powder onto whisper white cardstock. then used my sponge daubers in a variety of coloured inks to give a kind of vintage clock face look. On the first ones I used pink pirouette with creamy caramel and close to cocoa ink. The next two have centres of kiwi kiss, with creamy caramel and close to cocoa.
These two are a mixture of the above and to blend the colours I spritzed them lightly with water to let the colours blend on the paper, blotting them dry with paper towel. I sponged the edges with choc chip ink for some extra definition. Once finished I over stamped with the background stamp Tres Chic. It gives a collage effect and I like how the word family and inspiration runs across each face ... creating family time.
I had to have this set when i saw it and ordered it straight away but i have not used it yet as i had lost motivation but now i can see it in a different light, really like what you have done, Nerida, thanks, will have to ink it up and have a play. Felicity.H.
