The front, back and inside of my card along with the front and back of my envelope
Materials used:
- White C6/A2, 250gsm card and matching sized envelope
- Two pieces of white card, cut to fit
- Katzelkraft image (mini 086 - in my collection since 2017) stamped using Versafine Clair nocturne ink, including on to a full coverage post-it which I then cut out to use as a mask
- With my mask in place and using a makeup brush, I applied Memento Paris dusk ink through my TCW stencil
- VLV sentiment (from plate No. 925 - in my collection since 2017) stamped using Versafine Clair nocturne ink
- Paper Artsy splatter (from HPXT01 - in my collection since 2011) stamped using Memento rhubarb stalk ink
- After removing the mask I added just a little grey, beige (for the plaster) and red using Marvy le plume alcohol markers and a little glitter using the Wink of Stella glitter gel pen
- Dimensional foam tape to attach my image panel to my card ... FINALLY using the last strip of the tape from a mega roll I've been using since about 1990! Howzat for value?!?!??!

I love the Kaztlekraft images, they are super fun to work with, this little doggie is fun to look at and very cuddly.
And yes, yes, it's been super hot and humid up here in the midwest, I don't like extreme weather, I'm longing for Autumn, with her beautiful colors and cooler, crisp temps. Hang in there.
Thank you for sharing with us at RETRO RUBBER.

Congrats on the win, Kathy! I love that goofy pit bull with his bandage! His eyes tell me he is thinking prezackly what you said: "Howzat for value?!" Thank you for my morning smile! I hope the heat moves on soon. I feel like I've been saying that to my British friends all summer! Keep safe! Hugs, Darnell
