Mother Mash Up

My Internet friend Michelle calls it a Mash up when you use stamps from different companies - I've got 4 companies products on this card !! But I love it..... Paper is SU's presto patterns. The white pattern is glossy and the rest of the paper is matte, allowing you to brayer or sponge (which I did) to bring the pattern out. I used frayed burlap to layer the colour on the PP Frame is from WMS labels 10, and i don't have this nestie yet but they were SUPER simple to cutout, even for the scissor challenged like me. Cameo is a Hero Arts stamps. I saw Anya from the WMS DT do this with labels 18, and thought it would look just as pretty with some other labels. Mother is heat embossed in white from PTI Mega mixed messages. Brown base is SU's Soft Suede, lace and Brad are also SU The Came was inked in soft suede, then a fine dusting of Champagne Mist API was sponge dabben on ever so slightly.... Enjoy !

    Do love a good mash up myself, I must say it is just glorious how your magical mash up elements have come together. It's as if they always belonged. That has everything to go with your crafting genius. So inspiring. Oh, I need that flourish stamp!

    What a lovely, old-fashioned (in a good way!) card, Rose! I love the Victorian flair it has, and that you composed it from many different companies' elements!

    Beautiful card Rose. You can certainly tell the effort and thought that went into creating from so many different sources. The monchromatic look really makes the image and embellies stand out. Love the antique looking lacy bow - so pretty.
