Since The Male Room challenge is asking for "Animals" this time, I'm indulging my love of horses for today's card.
I followed Loll Thompson's video "Stencilling with Brushos" and created my background with the birch tree stencil and black Brushos (love all the colours the black Brushos give you).
I stamped the horses on the background in black ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I used a Versamarker pen to scribble in the "ground" and then heat embossed it with a mixture of different green embossing powders.
I trimmed the panel, bordered with black cs, popped it up on fun foam, and added Tim Holtz clippings stickers in place of a sentiment.
Supplies:
Stamps - Local King Rubber Stamp horses
Ink - Versafine Onyx Black, Versamarker pen
Paper - cream and black cs, watercolour paper
Size - A2
Accessories - black Brushos, clear embossing powder, a mix of green embossing powders, TCW stencil, fun foam, TH clippings stickers sentiment stickers
really fabulous card..love the look.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous horse card, Susan! I love it!! It looks like a wood-block print, and the black horses look awesome against the artsy Brusho stenciled background. I love the colors Black Brusho give you too.

Awesome masculine card. Love the multi colours you get with black Brushos. Well done on stencilling with it. It makes for a great backdrop for the horses.
ReplyDeleteThe background is beautiful and the horse with her colt is so sweet. What a fun idea for the grass and it came out great.
