Ink duster playtime

 I had an urge to get some inks and ink dusters out and had a little play. All of the cards have the main image stamped and dusted onto silk art card. Inks are either Distress inks or memento inks. All stamps on the silk art card for this one are from Inkylicious. I stamped the base cards with crafty individuals CI-430.
 This second card uses hedgerow1 and a sentiment from Hero Arts. Ink colours here are Distress inks in seedless preserves, picked raspberry and broken china. A white gel pen was used to add the highlights.
 I used a bit of water on my dusters on this one. The stamps are from the windswept set
For this last one I used all inkylicious stamps.
Thanks for looking!

These are all beautiful Sally. I love the colours and the Inkylicious stamps you've used. I've got most of the stamps myself. I love the background stamping on the card as well. A great set of cards.

My goodness you did have a play. I bought an ink duster boxed set at the craft fayre a fortnight ago but havn't had time to play with it yet. So much to do so little time. I love the top card. Those colours are so pretty together. Hugs Mrs A.

Lovely. This kind of inking and stamping is why I started. They are really finished of by the beautiful frames you have stamped.

A fab selection - I do love your inky work. That white gell pen looks great.
