This song title is the theme of the Sunday Stamper challenge this week and Hels is asking for something relating to home. I've used a quirky house stamp designed by Sam Poole, stamped twice and part of it cut out to add some dimension. It was clear embossed and then coloured with Distress stains and Distress ink pads. The background was made using the same colours and was embossed using a Special Touch mask which I inked with the darker colour to transfer some colour to the white card before adding more ink after it was embossed. (colours used were Seedless Preserve and Mustard Seed). The 'graffiti' was sponged through another mask using black soot ink and a text stamp also by Sam Poole was put onto a scrap of torn card, a little punched and coloured flower just finishes the grungy homely look. I must say my hands needed a good scrub after all that inky play!!
A super card Val, I love the masking you've done, and the colours.
