Serenity

I love this stamp! It's from the Serenity set by Artistic Outpost. I used the distress ink technique that I showed on this post to make the background and then stamped the image with Tim Holtz Walnut Stain Distress Ink. The card base is SU marigold morning with Tea Dye Distress Ink sponged on the edges. The layer is stamped with a Hero Arts stamp inked in Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink and then also sponged with Tea Dye Distress Ink. I added the white gel pen to the house to make it stand out a little. Then I painted a grungeboard swirl with a peeled paint dabber and added a prima flower and dew drop for the finishing touches.

Thanks so much for stopping. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
