Hello everyone,
What a beautiful winter day, the sun is shinning and it was hard to believe that it was minus 1oC first thing..
When I was doing background making day and shared the bees, I also had this sitting in the wings waiting to be put together, a busy grungy awesome background..
I started with an A4 sheet of cardstock, a large stencil and modeling paste..
A close up after it had dried..
then I drizzled inks everywhere, and water, and let it do what it does best..
I die cut the TH car and pieced it together and die cut the man in silhouette..
Added some extra die cut and inked cogs and gears. for decoration..
made a road from gray cardstock and added a gold embossed birthday sentiment..
and also added a little white ink with a sponge around the man to lift him a bit.
and there we go, all done..
Thank you so much for stopping by, hope you have an amazing weekend
doing whatever you want to do..
luv CHRISSYxx

ReplyDeleteWOW. Incredible card. So glad you joined us at Die Cut Divas
ReplyDeleteThis piece is such a dynamic blend of texture and storytelling! The grungy background sets a perfect stage for the silhouette and vintage car—like a scene from an old noir film brought to life with inks and gears. I love how the road and gold sentiment add movement and purpose, while the soft white ink around the figure gives it just the right lift. It’s a brilliant mix of grit and elegance!
ReplyDeleteYou are so good with masculine makes. Amazing what that little dab of white did for the gentleman!
