Today I have a card for a few challenges:
The Male Room - "The Great Outdoors"
52 Christmas Card Throwdown - "Colouring"
Penny Black - "Creative Christmas Challenge"
I used Jill Foster's technique seen in
this video.
I put the image in the MISTI and coloured the different parts of the
image with various small Distress inks (in the video, Jill Foster uses
Distress markers - either are fine). When all was stamped, I restamped
it all with Versamark and heat embossed in clear. That way I had a
resist for sponging the sky, the sunset, and the snow.
I made a small sentiment banner out of kraft cs and mounted the panel on fun foam on a kraft card base.
Thanks for stopping by!
Supplies:
Stamps - Penny Black image and sentiment
Ink - various small Distress inks, Versamark
Paper - kraft and white cs
Size - A6
Accessories - clear embossing powder, fun foam
