Spots &/orStripes.
I decided to go all artsy and create my own stripes...
I swiped ink over a stencil, spritzed and then 'stamped' the stencil on the card stock - in other words using the stencil to make a monoprint. Next I brushed a light wash over the stripes. At this stage I hadn't decided on a stamp. So I browsed my stash of PB stamps and chose this gorgeous collage stamp. Once I'd stamped it, I realised it would look better as is and not coloured.
Stamp: Penny Black Botanical Notes
