I’ve had a bit of a break from blogging this week – well I did say at the beginning of the year I wouldn’t blog daily this year (but pretty much have for most months!) – anyway this weekend I have a crop to go to so might get a few projects done and ready to blog about in coming weeks – so maybe I’ll be back more routinely – but sure you’ll forgive me for being a little more absent this past week!
Today I have an interesting project that is similar to cards I made a few months ago using rub ons. On the previous projects I used the white rub ons … well this time it was the black ones and I used the full sheet across four different inky/painty backgrounds in one session.
Aren’t they lovely?
Well I didn’t have time to make four cards but I did manage to make this one using the panel in the top right…
By putting rub ons in different parts of the background (this one is a gelli print) it leads the eye around the panel and then that white die cut deer stands out in contrast.
Love how this worked.
I kept the actual card very simple… mounted on white and black to frame and wrapped some floss for a bow for the area that seemed like it needed something. Then added some enamel accents to create ‘gems’ as embellishments.
Love this moody looking artsy card and looking forward to using the other backgrounds when I get time to do something with them.
Happy crafting!
