Uncle Bernards card

Hello there! How are you? Hopefully good and surviving the chilly weather! I have been wanting to use the stamp I have used in my card today for a while - its by Mark Gould and is sold by Chocolate Baroque. He's got 4 stamps in their catalogue and this is the first of two that I have. I made this card for my uncle Bernard.


I stamped, coloured and masked the image then used another chocolate baroque stamp from the year of stamping series to create a background. All colouring was done with distress inks. Lastly I added the ships wheel which is a tando creatives piece coloured with distress ink.


Here's a close up! Great image I think!

Hope you have a great day!

Big hugs
