When Sally-Ann at DigiStamp Boutique sent me her new Isabella and Freddie images I just knew I wanted to team them up together. As you know, I'm completely hopeless when it comes to Photoshop, so I got Graham to show me how to merge 2 images - I did check that this was ok with Sally-Ann first though.
Freddie and Isabella are available to buy at DSB now, so pop on over and see all the other fab images Sally-Ann has produced too.
This was also my first play with Distress Inks and the blending tool - big thankyou to Kath for the quick lesson. I do think I got a bit blend-happy though lol
The idea of this card was to do a modern card with a vintagey twist, so what do you think? did I manage to pull it off?
The images are Freddie and Isabella from DSB, coloured with promarkers, papers started out a pale yellow and are old Papermania colossal papers - which I inked up with the distress inks and punched with MS doily lace punch
cardstock is core'dinations, pearls are kaisercraft and the stamped greeting is Hero Arts.
Here's the close-up...

This is lovely Debbi, I think you managed the modern card with a vintage twist really well. Kath is so good with her blending tool and Distress Inks isn't she? I'm either too heavy-handed or can hardly see the distressing!

For a first play with distress inks I think you've done a great job - also the vintage looks works really well with those Collossal papers. Such a good idea to use them up. Smashing card.
