It's time for a new challenge at Seize The Birthday, and this week Jules has chosen No Stamping - not even the sentiment!
I'd run out of encaustic wax scenes, so I got all the kit out and did a spot of ironing. I think I made about 8 in all. I've just ordered some more waxes so I'll probably do some more ironing before I put it all away again. I love the complete randomness of how the scenes turn out, you can only do so much to control it.
For this card, I added some silver wax along the edge of the iron, which gave the hilltops a bit of a sheen. I was happy with how it turned out, and with that white gap where no wax covered the card, because it makes it look like snow-covered hills and reminds me of Scotland. Especially as I finished it off with a plaid printed sentiment topper.
Not that I've been to the Scottish Highlands. But we're remedying that this year and having a little trip up there in the summer.
Pop on over to the Seize The Birthday blog for some fabulous examples of no stamping, and play along with us. If you'd prefer to include stamping, you can play along with our Anything Goes theme.
Happy stamping cardmaking!
