The card above uses Gerda Steiner's Vrooming By! stamp set, stamped in black ink, clear heat embossed and watercoloured with DOX inks. This is a technique from Nina-Marie (video tutorial HERE). Sponged the colours lightly across the top of the page using Distress Oxides (Candied Apple, Wild Honey, Twisted Citron, Peacock Feathers). Used a circle punch (1 1/4") to punch two circles from a piece of acetate and sponged through my homemade stencil to add more depth of colour. Finished by adding a stitched line to represent a road. :)

This is a new-to-me stamp and my first time using it, so heading over to add it to the NBUS #24 Challenge.
Thanks for stopping by for a visit!
