Little Art Cottage: Bazzill

Wednesday, April 15, 2015

Hi there,

this week we are having a photo inspiration challenge over at Addicted to Stamps and More:

cover a panel of watercolor paper with Distress Paint (Picket Fence) and use the Tim Holtz Craft Scratcher to mimic a woodgrain texture
add Distress Ink (Pumice Stone) to your craft mat and spritz it with water - drag the panel through that mixture until you are satisfied with the result
randomly ink parts of the panel with Distress Ink (Antique Linen) and ink up the edges with Distress Ink (Walnut Stain)
stamp the flowers from Paper Artsy JOFY Plate 32 with Versafine (Onyx Black) and color the image with Derwent Inktense Pencils and Wink of Stella Clear Glitter
randomly stamp IndigoBlu Script Background with Distress Ink (Frayed Burlap) for more texture
at this point I got a little impatient because the ink didn't want to dry as quickly as I would have liked and that is why I sprinkled the whole panel with clear embossing powder - this added a nice shine to the flower outlines and the script
stamp the Hero Arts Designer Woodgrain on a piece of Bazzill Walnut Cream with Avery Elle Ink Pad (Silver Fox)
I didn't add a sentiment because I thought the card was finished at this point
