Topic: Multi-Technique
Time for another creation inspired by Tim's 12 Tags of 2015. We're now up to April.
This is Tim's version:
I made three cards from this inspiration but will only show one today (saving the others for the next couple of days). Here is the process:
-cut watercolor paper
-stamp flower heads and stems with Archival Ink in jet black
-mist paper with water
-use bulb sprayer to apply two colors of Distress Ink to background
-dry with heat tool
-use darker Distress Marker to draw partial outline on some of the petals
-use aquabrush to pull color into the petal
-dry
-scribble that color and another lighter one on acrylic block
-use aquabrush to color the petals with these inks
-use same process for stems
-dry
-use Pumice Stone distress marker scribbled on acrylic block to aquabrush a drop shadow around flowers and stems
-ink outer edges of paper with dark distress ink using a foam tool
-put black soot Distress Marker in bulb sprayer
-lightly speckle the background
-cut a backing piece
-use distress tool on edges
-ink edges with dark distress ink
-use die to cut out word
-cut a slit above and below the word
-feed the floral behind the diecut strip
-use sewing machine to stitch around all four edges of floral tag
-diecut a word from dark paper
-attach an embellishment to front of diecut strip
-adhere whole to a card base
That being said, here is the resulting first card:
Back tomorrow with version 2.
