Embracing Imperfection !

I decided to play a little today, I got out a mask and some Molding Paste and a bunch of Distress Inks and Re-Inkers. Because I was trying something rather foreign to me, I thought the stamp I used really applied to what I was doing. This card isn't perfect, but I was happy making it.
Here's a close up of the texture, I sprayed the "brickwork" with homemade glimmer mist and it's really pretty in person.



I used stamps by Dylusions, Glitz and JustRite.
I think I'll keep this card for myself as a reminder that it's okay to play !
This was actually inspired by the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge " Say it With Stamps"

  3. I love this, Shona! That brick background looks fabulous. The flourish vine and flowers really tie it all together. The sentiment is a nice reminder that we should play more often :-)

  4. I love the brick wall. It came out perfect. I am so happy to see that you were playing with molding paste. I just ordered mine and can't wait to play with it too. It's great that you are trying new techniques :)

  5. This is super cool, Shona. I have never seen brick like that before. How creative! The card has a real outdoorsy and earthy feel to it.

    The sentiment is so true.
