Still on the scheduled posts for this weeks Allsorts challenge where Helene has set us the theme of using our 'Masks and Stencils' and we have a fab new sponsor Ace Envelopes who are offering a £25 Amazon Voucher to one luck winner - how cool is that !
And over at Prickly Pear there is a three day blog hop going on here to celebrate the release of the new stamps and dies. I am not taking part this time round due to being on holiday but I do have a card to share with you today using one of the new stamps myself and the DT have been playing with the last few weeks. And I will be sharing more of the new stamps in the coming weeks.
So for my Allsorts piece it's more lovely inky indulgence with a a background created with Dylusions and distress inks then grunge paste through a Timmy mask and an arch window stencil through which I sponged distress inks, some random stamping with a Penny Black stamp, two sections of a Penny Black sentiment and Penny Black Bashful die daisies cute from a piece of card sprayed with the same colour dylusions.
And for my Prickly Pear piece Pan Pastels, some masking and the stamps as listed above
