My card today is for our new challenge at Fab'n' Funky, it's my turn to host this week and I chose the theme of 'just add ink'...so ink pads, stamps stencils, markers...the possibilities are endless :))
I've had this gorgeous Lavinia stamp for a while and thought it about time to show it the ink. I made the background by applying Distress oxides directly to a large silicone 'splat' stamp (Inkylicious) and spritzing it with water to mix the inks a bit, then splatting it directly onto white cardstock, then stamping the image with Versafine Clair on top. I added some bling and a sentiment stamp.
I kept the card design very simple, placing my image in the aperture of the embossed black cardstock.
Please hop over to Fab'n'Funky to see the fabulous creations from my lovely teamies, then I hope you'll be inspired to play along!
Thanks for visiting
Enjoy your day

Beautiful card, Chris! The soft "splat" background makes a great contrast with the gorgeous eye stamp. Of course with an eye like that, it just HAS to have some bling!!! Thank you for sharing your creativity with us at Watercooler Wednesday!!! -Donna
