The days are getting shorter and nights are getting longer. A good reason to bring some light in the darkness, and that is precisely what the challenge of Frilly and Funkie is about this fortnight. And I'm entering this tag also into the Compendium of Curiosties challenge where the challenge is to use the Distress Ink Palette We have only a few techniques to go before we reach the end of the second book.
First I've colored in the stamp with Distress Reinkers. This stamp is one of my favorites, you can almost always use this stamp for every occasion.
Then I made the background with various colors of Distress Ink, and I've done with that with a sponge, so that I could go around the colored parts with precision. It's a bit lighter around the stamp, but I find that very pretty. As if it's glowing a bit.
Thank you for stopping by! Love to see you next time!
Hugs,
Sandra

This is wonderful, Sandra - love the colors you used. And I agree with you that your sponging, which leaves lighter shades around the lamp post, is lovely. Super take on our challenge. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Frilly and Funkie.
I still love this tag -- I am just going to have to steal this idea - but I will give you credit - will you be mad at me!!
