Card Art by Helen

Here's this month's sketch:

And here's the project it inspired:

The Unbridled Beauty Photopolymer Stamp Set features detailed line art images with an equestrian theme, and is a perfect set for projects that need a touch of rustic charm.

The horseshoe and grazing horses images from the Unbridled Beauty Photopolymer Stamp Set were stamped randomly using Crumb Cake Classic Stampin' Ink™ across the front of a folded Crumb Cake card base.

The fence image was stamped along the bottom edge of a 2¾" x 4" rectangle of Granny Apple Green Cardstock using Early Espresso ink. The tree image was stamped randomly over the rest of the rectangle using Granny Apple Green ink. This rectangle was adhered, at an angle, to a rectangle of Early Espresso Cardstock measuring 3" x 4¼".

The horse portrait image was stamped on Basic White Cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento™ Ink, and cut out using the stitched circle die (measuring approximately 2½" in diameter) from the Stylish Shapes Dies. The image was coloured using Watercolor Pencils (Balmy Blue, Basic Black, and Early Espresso; from Assortments 1 & 2) and Blender Pens. The circle was then adhered to the right of the stamped Granny Apple Green layer, and the element adhered to the card front.

The 'from the heart' sentiment, also from the Unbridled Beauty set, was stamped on Balmy Blue Cardstock using Early Espresso ink, and cut out using the medium-sized stitched banner from the Stylish Shapes Dies. A length of Early Espresso Linen Thread was looped in a double bow and adhered to the reverse of the die-cut banner. The banner was then added to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals™.
