My next 2 cards

Here are my next two cards. These are inspired by a Hero Arts video .
On my first attempt I probably used to much water and the flower was very unclear, so I stamped it on top with black ink.


My supplies:
Stampers Anonymous (swirl)
Marianne Design Eline's Vintage (sentiment)
October Afternoon (flower)
Aladine 'Texte du Monde' (script)
Distress ink: old paper, peeled paint, barn door, broken china, rusty hinge
Colorbox: frost white
clear embossing powder

Two bird cards

Last monday I was hopping around some blogs and I suddenly wanted to ink my non-cute stamps. I immediately had several ideas, but it took me some time to get from a rough idea to a finished card. These are the first ones. I had the backgrounds in my stash and they were perfect to combine with this lovely stamp (which was still uninked).
My supplies:
Distress inks: Bundled Sage and Scatterd Straw
Stamps: Judi Kins 'Whispy Bamboo'
Marianne Design Eline's Vintage
De Stempelwinkel 'Hummingbird on flower'
