Morning all,
After recently discovering my new home cards all appeared to feature houses ... I thought I should see what I could do - I knew I had a skyline set of silhouette images (by FLONZ) and wondered if I could work something around that ....

| My card |
The front, back and inside of my card along with the front and back of my envelope
Materials used:
- White A2/C6, 250gsm, card and matching sized envelope
- Two pieces of white card cut to fit
- One piece of kraft card cut to mat
- Snippets of card in both white and Kraft
- Skyline image and sentiments stamped using Versafine onyx black ink
- Using a stencil brush (recent purchase from Aldi) I brushed Distress Inks: tumbled glass and salty ocean. Once dry I gave the panel a quick squirt of Crafters Companion Spray and Shine, to protect the water based inks in transit
- On the Kraft panels I stamped the border image using Versafine onyx black ink, just to add a little interest to the dullness that is a Kraft matting layer!
