Hello, there! Have your legs recovered from all the hopping last week? Don't forget to visit Hero Arts and see if you were one of the lucky winners from the 5-day blog hop.
I made a quick card with the Newspaper Skyline stamp. My original plan was to create a Polaroid, but I would have trimmed off too much of the skyline, so it's a "faux Polaroid".
The stamp was clear embossed and I ink distressed with Pine Needles, Evergreen Bough, and Rusty Hinge distress inks. I flicked some water to mimic a starry sky and stamped the sentiment from Wish You Were Here.
The sentiment was stamped with Hero Arts' new Mid Tone Shadow Ink in Wet Cement. I've always wanted a nice gray ink and the new ink is the perfect shade. Love the new mid tones!
Thanks so much for visiting today. Have a great week!

Donna, this is a wonderful "Polaroid" of the cityscape! I love the effect of the splatter of water, too. I have already ordered the Wet Cement midtone ink, I loved it the minute I saw it! Looks great on this card, too!

Brilliant card. Love it :) The colour scheme is brilliant too. What a brilliant idea!
Donna I really like the non-trimmed version. So stylish and classy.
