Understated



Here is a little grungey plate made on a piece of white card 5x5 inches square.  I have used some torn background paper applied with glue stick and coloured with vintage photo and wild honey Distress inks.




I have used some TH Salvage stickers to embellish and a range of stamped images from The Artistic stamper (bee), PaperArtsy (central plaque),  Toodles & Binks (flower),  Tanda (spotty background), Stampers Anonymous (stencil letters) & a linen stamp ?   The red ink is Memento.




The central words were stamped in archival black onto card and trimmed out, I coloured the words red with a copic marker before mounting on foam pads.



A piece of brass chain was added with brads as shown and three star brads were added at the top right.  Some stickles was added and some tissue tape at two of the edges.
