Polished Stone

This post is especially to show the ladies I was sitting with at the Cards Unlimited club night last night what I did with one of the polished stone backgrounds that I completed there. Thank you to Jo Beaver for reintroducing me to this fun technique. BTW I got 95% of the ink stains off my hands in the shower this morning. I have got to be the muckiest cardmaker ever!

So that I could use the reinkers that I already had I did not use the Adirondack alcohol inks and applicator that Jo used. Instead of the applicator I used cotton balls. (hence the multi-coloured hands).

Here's the card: -

Supplies used: -

Stampsets - Heartfelt Thanks & Spring Solitude
