Wondering whether I should add some words somewhere?
It was made with some fountain pen cartridges I had spare (they didn't fit any pens I had so I just opened them up and splashed them about!) I added the circular stamps from a collection I had in the post the other day. This project is proving useful for trying out new - or indeed old - stash that may well get forgotten.
This was yesterday's card:
I must admit I had a battle with this one, it went through a stage where I wasn't liking it so I added more ... and now I feel better about it. The quote, which I love, is from the book, 'Love Eternally' that I was reading and finished yesterday. It was a real tearjerker and I needed my tissues! (Husband and son were giving me a look)...
Thanks for looking today and for any comments,
Nicky

Wow, that newest card is great! I don't think I'd add words or anything to it.
That top card is fab - love it! It would make a fantastic background, but is just great as it is. x
I love how you say you 'just' opened the cartridges. Was there mess? Was there lots of it?
Love both of these but especially that bottom one - so intricate!
By opening them Carmen, I meant, 'poking the bottom with a pointy thing' as you normally do with ink cartridges. I did try and control the mess but you know how it is when you 'splash randomly!'... ☺
I done the same thing with the ink before, but I did it over paint instead of with a rubber stamp. The stamp is a good idea! I really like that. It's great looking too.
The quote turned out fabulous! I hope you really like the way it turned out. I do! It's one of the cards I wish I could just own and hang on my wall to look at all the time.

Like both cards. I was wondering what to do with the ink cartridges I have ... thanks! :D :D Love the quote.
Love the cards and I think I'll add the book to my to read list since I love books who make me shed a tear :)
Your cards turned out awesome...really cool.
Cards are great and like the idea of left over cartridge....Judith, Texas
