Good morning! Sherry here today and I have a mixed media card to share with you. For my project today, I initially pulled out my Dylusions Art Journal and became so overwhelmed with all that blank space that I decided to go smaller. Maybe one day I’ll feel that I can tackle that big blank page staring back at me . . .
For this small version, the flowers were stamped on watercolor paper and then water colored with Distress Ink Refills. When dry, the flowers were colored with a VersaMarker Pen, sprinkled with clear embossing powder and heat set. (I wanted the flowers to stand out from the background.) The image was then die cut with a 5x7 mat.
Using Bundled Sage, Tumbled Glass and Wild Honey Distress Inks, the Wrinkle Free Distress Technique was used to create the background. A stencil was die cut from a lattice die and Dylusions White Linen Ink Spray was misted over the image. You can see the faint white image in the upper corner of the photo below.
Old Studio 490 stamps were used for some background stamping and the sentiment. Paint splatters were adding using water and Distress Paints. The gold splatters were made with a gold leafing pen.
Thanks for joining me today!
