Challenge #21 at FSC – Cities Of The World

Show us your capital city at Fashionable Stamping Challenges this fortnight and you could be in the running for a prize or place on the catwalk. It's up to you whether you stay in your country or whether you travel far away. Please keep in mind that we are a stamping challenge and that we want to see at least one real stamp on your project. Digis are not allowed.


I stamped the images with a solvent ink, the text on some blotting paper. I tore the blotting paper to attach to the tag, some small pieces. I stamped the dots with some gesso, and also brushed some watered down gesso over the text... 
I used goosebumps as a resist on the main image, and then sponged it al over..

  4. prachtig!! uh vertalen.nu geeft bij goosebumps aan "kippenvel" :) je hebt iets over het papier gelegd, wat het is kippenvel of maskertape of bubbeltjesplastic? (komt het dichtstbij kippenvel haha) dat maakt niet uit omdat het gewoon voor het afdekken was of hoorde daar ook een speciale techniek bij? Prachtig! Wat is dat gesso ook een geweldig spul hè!
