JUST PLAYING..

 Hello everyone,

Been having a play with dies and just making things simple for masculine cards..although I love the fuss and bother better, the layers and grunge and all that stuff, especially nautical style, but just wanted to keep playing and simpler way..lack of mojo I think..


anyway inked up this panel with a lot of Bundled Sage Distress ink..


It's not really this dark, I'm only showing it because you can see the water splatter better..


then I stenciled texture paste, love it..
Monte Marte texture paste, it is really good..


After adding the die cuts showing a little dimension, not much..


I really like this one..


the I glued and stuck down on dimension tape the sentiment...
WHY???


I wasn't thinking too hot and I don't like it off to the side..


I then squirted Nuvo black crystal drops on and
gave it a whack or two the flatten them out
and sort of liked it a bit better..


then did the whole thing again with the top hat die that I bought last week..
and added the sentiment along the bottom without the red backing..


here they are together ready for the shop..

Thank you so much for stopping by..
hope you have a great weekend, mine is underway..
still mojo less..

Luv CHRISSYxx
