Vintage Birthday


My goal was to come up with a card that could be masculine. I was in the mood to play around with oxide inks, and I love that the results are never the same when working with these inks. I did the oxide ink smooshing on my craft mat, sprayed with water in various colors of Antique Linen, Frayed Burlap, Hickory Smoke, Black Soot, Iced Spruce and Tumbled Glass. I applied and smooshed until I got a beautiful, mottled background. Then I stamped the World Map stamp on the large backgrond piece, and embossed the other two panels with square lattice and a license plate ef. The little truck is from an old stampin up set (loads of love?). I stamped the truck on kraft paper, then smooshed in the various oxide inks.
