Tim Holtz Distress Inks & JOFY Stamps Card....





My Inks and stamps have been out again and having fun with Distress Inks to create backgrounds. I normally only use two colours of Distress Ink but thought I would use three for this card and I am pleased how this has turned out.

To create the background I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Seedless Preserve, Peeled Paint and Chipped Sapphire and will certainly be making more :-) 

Distress inks can be found on our website - www.inspirecreationz.com

Barkley Xmas Stamp Card - The Promarkers Have Been Out


Hello...... When we posted a few days ago that the Barkley Stamps have arrived we just had to have a play so out came the inks and pro-markers.

The images have been stamped with Versafine Black ink and then coloured using Promarkers.  For these cards I tried the new Crafters Companion A4 Neenah Ultra Smooth Stamping Card and was really impressed.  It allowed the pens to blend really well without saturating the card - highly recommended!!!!




Both the stamps and the cards are available from our website - www.inspirecreationz.com

I love my Promarkers & my Spectrum Noir's which is what brings my images to life and I use on about every card I make, I also love rubber & digital stamping but out of the two I love rubber stamping the most which I have growing stash of these :)
