Hello Crafty Friends and Happy Wednesday! I hope your week has been smooth sailing and you're looking forward to a nice weekend. I have a quick share for you today featuring a gorgeous Moth from the Beautiful Wings Stamp and Coordinating Die Set by Gina K. Designs.
I'm ashamed to admit I've had this set since January of 2021 and have only inked an image from it once. I was having a look through the stash and not only found this set but also found some alcohol ink panels I made a few years ago. Putting those 2 things together, I came up with this design.
The Moth has been colored using Alcohol Markers in colors that matched the panel, which I've cut into various sized strips. The sentiment has been heat embossed and both the Moth and sentiment strip are popped on foam pads. I didn't like the "unfinished" look of the strips so I created a frame using 2 stitched rectangle dies from Kat Scrappiness. Lastly, I've added teal blue gems to finish it off.
I hope I've inspired you to look through your stash and create using something you either haven't used yet or haven't used in a long time. Until next time, Happy Crafting!
