For this card I used Infusions powdered inks and coated card. I sprayed the card with spray starch, sprinkled the powdered inks of it. The starch dissolves some the ink on contact and then spray a little more starch to water it all down. Place the saran over the surface and scrunch it up to give it some texture. Leave the saran on for at least 30 minutes, then remove.
To finish the card I used a stamp from Local King rubber stamps and just added a little colour using my zig pens. For the light from the light house I first used a white Faber Castell Pit artist pen and then used my yellow zig over the top, this allowed the yellow to show through.
