Speshink DT Louise - The Gent and The Aviator Monochrome.

Morning all and thanks you for stopping by. 

Today Louise is back with us and sharing a couple of fantastic makes using my 'The Gent' stamp and 'The Aviator'.

My stamps can be found on my Etsy Store Here or on the 

Chocolate Baroque web site Here. 

Louise's first project is a monochrome black and white card that was ideal for fathers day. xx

Keeping this card black and white gave this a simple finish i really like.

1. Taking a 15x21cm bit of card I rounded off the edges with a corner punch.
2. Masking off the Gent stamp with masking tape i covered the wreath frame and then inked with versafine onyx black. Removing the tape i stamped out the Gent on the card.
3. Then covering the stamped image with a mask made from a post it note, stamp out the gears in the background. I used a Chocolate Baroque Stamp June Gears in versafine Smokey Gray
4. At the base of the gent i stamped over the mask using a Top Hat watches stamp from Creative Expressions CER014 in onyx black.
5. The watches were stamps from the Top Hat set. I stamped them onto some card and cut each watch 11 in total the largest is a stampede nostalgic pocket watch stamp A2528D. I then layered and glued them around the Gent.
6. The Phrase "Time is not measured by clocks but by moments " i printed out and added as the finishing touch. 

Keeping with the black and white Monochrome Louise has also created this beautiful card using my Aviator stamp.

1. I firstly took a square piece of card, and stamped the image of the Aviator in black versafine to the right of the square. Then using a black watercolour paint, watered down, painted shading into the image
2. Once the paint was dry, i masked the image with a post it note.  Along the bottom and right hand edge I stamped in black a frame. The stamp used for this is a Kate Pertiest Autumn Leaves on the edge AL3040
3. To finish the image,i stamped "be unique" to the left, using a Crafter Companion Stamp "Words to Inspire" set 1 TXT.ST.INSP1
4. Mounting the square onto black card it was glued to a 7x7 card  and hey Pesto ..

Again thank you everyone for stopping by. Head back next Monday to see something new from the Speshink Design Team. xxx
