Mixed Media Index Cards with Sketchy Leaves Stencil and Brusho Background

Hi there, Susanne here! I am participating in this years #icad2023 challenge over on instagram. Icad means index card and I am “decorating” one card each day in June and July.

For the focal point I adhered images from Sketchy Leaves together with some collage scraps. Click continue to watch the process videos.

To give this a sewn look I stamped it with a stamp from Mixed Media Marks 1 before.
