Step 1 of 8

Ink up the stamp from Skeleton Leaves Background stamp collection, with the Aurore, Verveine and Emeraude Izink ink pads. 

Spritz with water and stamp on to the white card.

Dry off your artwork, before proceeding to the next step.  

Step 2 of 8

Ink up Nathan with the Onyx Black Versafine, and stamp just off the bottom, and right hand edges, of your stamped background. 

Step 3 of 8

Pop some of the Izink Pigments on to a glass or craft mat. Add a little water, and paint your stamped image. I used the Avalanche to lighten the other 2 colours, creating light and shade to my artwork. 

Step 4 of 8

Ink up the sentiment from the Imala Be Yourself stamp set, with the Onyx Black Versafine.

Stamp to the left of your stamped image.  

Step 5 of 8

Use a black pen, to draw a decorative frame around your artwork. 

Step 6 of 8

Use a white gel pen to add accents, and highlights, to your artwork. 

Step 7 of 8

Mat your artwork on to the black card. 

Step 8 of 8

Mat this on to the front of your top folding, grey card blank. 

You made it!
