I decided to make some tape using masking tape. I used various inks, Distress, VersaMagic, Memento. Stamps from Crafty Individuals, Lawn Fawn and unknown others.
I've used a cream card base and blended some DI. The keen ones amongst you will note the uneven top here verses the straight one in the next picture. That's because I'm messy!! I had to redo the whole thing when I didn't check my stamps hadn't picked up extra ink around the edge!! So on the next attempt I decided I wanted a straight line.
I had stamped the bird pair but they seemed to be just hanging there and then I saw this card by Laurie and decided to try and add a sentiment to take the line across the card. Pleased, except for that silly little heart I thought would be cute to join the two words!! I told you I can't draw.......
