Wizarding Wishes

Hello lovely peeps



For today's card I've used the 'Wizard' digi stamp from Tiddlyinks, printed out and coloured in with Graph'Its and Promarkers. I was in a bit of a hurry so rather than spend ages getting the folds of the cloak right I just used black paper. The background was made with water colour card and a Faded Jeans Distress Oxide inkpad - I added a few layers of colour, drying between each one. When it was all dry I used the main Swirling Stars die (Tim Holtz/Sizzix) to cut out the swirl.

Behind the sentiment I've upcycled some cardboard packaging. I tore a strip off and then wet one side with water. After a minute or two you then peel the paper off to reveal the stripes.  Once it was dry I added white acrylic paint.

Other ingredients:-
Dymo machine
Wishes die - Impression Obsession
Navy pearlescent card
