Horses

A clear acrylic stamp by Inkadinkado is the beginning.
It has been stamped with black ink onto faux suede.
How to make faux suede - spread a thin layerbrown Liquid Applique
over card stock and heat with heat gun.
Yes, it really does feel like suede.
I stamped over the suede with crackle stamped
inked with a medium brown dye ink.
Tear around the edges of the image and
"burn" the torn edges with black ink.
I have been known to fill in some of the uninkable
edges with a black Sharpie to get a nice solid
black burned look.

The Spellbinders Label that the horse image
is attached to is cut from a leather look gift wrap.
Next layer down is another Spellbinders Label
that has the edges first sponged with a dark brown ink,
followed by very narrow sponging of black.
Horse shoes have been stamped in the corners.
