Stampbord Duo


Over on the PA blog Helen is back with a stampbord bag charm which you can see here. I used two, 2" squares and mounted them onto joined tags. Background LP script is stamped in white ink and doodling with posca pen. All sides edged in liquid leaf.


Close up of the scratchy marks to reveal the white.


This is the stamped image coloured in distress inks before using a scratchy tool to reveal the white.


And a close up after areas have been scratched away.

This looks fantastic! I love your scratching (if you'll pardon the expression!) I love your colours and the stamps you've used! This is my first attempt at Stampbord, so I've got a lot to learn and your post has really inspired me to work at it! xxx
