Oh and just when you thought Distress Ink couldn't get any better.........Picked Raspberry is sent waving a flag of hot pinked wondrousness!! And mowed lawn and salty ocean aren't half bad either! When I first saw the seasonal distress inks last Autumn I wasn't that fussed as they looked pretty similar to existing colours.......and then when Spring came out I thought wow they look nice and then when Summer came out and I saw King Tim himself demo the colours I was like woahhhhhhhh.........bright colours and distress.....the world is now complete!!! And now I have the summer ones I was not disappointed and I got mustard seed to, to add to my collection......brilliant. Above are a couple of creations that I made today.....and even better I also got a Stampotique monster stamp which I have wanted for ages.......

The top one is a distress background - salty ocean and mowed lawn.....a spray of perfect pearls and the bottles stamp is from Paper Artsy and I think the greeting is personal impressions.

The second one is a background of picked raspberry, mowed lawn, salty ocean and mustard seed, plus a spray of purple dylusions ink for good measure, then the monster stamp, a paper artsy greeting and the rest of the trees etc are Katy Sue Designs.....

The bottom one is a little tiny canvas.......painted pink.....then black gesso then perfect pearls.....then picked raspberry on the chipboard shape with a little walnut stain around the edge and the purple star is UTEE with micro beads in it......
