Woodware Countryside Stems Birthday

Sharing another card made with some more of my new purchases, another set of Woodware stamps by Jane Gill, this has five single countryside stems plus a sentiment.  It's great the stylised stems are all separate, makes layout placement totally your choice and the open outlines ideal for extra doodling or zentangle ... one day I'll try that.


I started with a Distress Oxide background using picked raspberry, cracked pistacio & spiced marmalade inks added direct to watercolour card with a blending tool before spritzing with water and leaving to dry naturally.  Once the stems were stamped & embossed I've added more colour direct from the ink pads with a water brush to highlight some of the open outlines.

A pretty stitched scalloped aperture was die cut from plain card and mounted over the top.  Added three thin strips of leftover background to the top corner and a hand cut sentiment white embossed on black card with three little coloured dots to add to the flow of the layout.

I've used - 5x7 tent fold card base
Distress Oxide Inks on Watercolour Card
Woodware JGS559 Countryside Stems stamp set
Creative Expressions Coconut White Foundations Card
Unbranded aperture die
