This one started a little larger and used Stonewashed and Denim Adirondack inkpads to stamp out the design.
I think that I used most of the stamps from the sheet for this one! Lol.
I then used an alcohol marker to add some shade to the sky, leaving a white semi circle to indicate a sun, and then created the shaded colours you see in the next image with wax-based coloured pencil.
With the image coloured I had a rummage through my card stash and found some blue coloured and patterned cardstocks to work with.
Cardstock collated and I commenced construction. Ooo, illiteration in action, almost.
Anyway, I cut a mat from black and then added a layer of a fancily patterned cardstock.
I then used a cutting file to create a frame or mat for the stamped image.
I cut a mat of the shape (created in Brother Scan N Cut canvas as one was not included) and stuck that to the blue patterned card stock.
Then I cut the doily design from a smokey blue American Crafts cardstock and stuck that onto the mat.
I then cut a circle of black cardstock to fit the centre of the design and stuck that down.
Finally I used the Brother Scan N Cut’s preview feature to help me cut a circle from the stamped design that would fit inside the mat of black cardstock.
As a final touch I added a few (billion) blue coloured gems to the doily design.
And that, my dear friends, was about it!
Here are a few more images of the finished design.
So, what do you think? Good eh?
Well, I’ve not much more to add to this post apart from to say thank you for reading and I look forward to seeing you again next week.

There is a mention of rubber though so not completely off topic lol. Love the way you built up the picture, I had forgotten that technique.

Not sure why this is a problem. You will need an account to shop/download.

Love the card John!
I have a brother machine and I have used several files of there’s to create SnC files. I would like to know how you got canvas to make the mat from the file, if you are willing to share the information. Thanks x

Just use the offset tool. It’s a button on the toolbar that looks like two circles sitting in top of each other.
The canvas help PDF will explain more if you need it.
