Masculine, and Messy, Model T

Welcome

I made this masculine card using up scraps that I had smooshed ink onto.

All stamps are from (the now defunct) KiwiStamping.  whose owner got me into this stamping hobby!

I made the background by stencilling over the blotchy base card using a Uniko Mid Century Modern Squares stencil, and the residual ink on my brushes, moving the stencil between layers.  From memory I think I did three layers of stencilling.

The feature panel was stamped using Catherine Pooler Rouge ink on a smaller panel

And the sentiment went directly onto the background.

The edges of the panels were swiped across the ink pad to give a subtle definition.

The bakers twine had a metallic thread through it, which gave an unexpected glint to the card. 

The inside, and the envelope were decorated using another scrap and edged with the same ink.
