Perfect love the colours and this is a great stamp. you've inspired me to get my Distress inks out again got a bit hooked on Inktense pencils recently Love and hugs Carole x
I'm just having a lovely catch up Ann after a few weeks off. I'm enjoying looking at everyone's gorgeous makes, there is such a variety of work on my rounds!
I've tried colouring with distress inks here and there (and Inktense too) but I always go back to alcohol markers. I must persevere as I love the soft effect. You've done a smashing job on this and the monochrome is perfect.
