My Creative Monday for Magenta - a technique


I have a technique this time. 

Apply grunge paste through a stencil; ink up a script stamp with black and red ink; stamp into the wet paste. Remove the stencil, Leave it to dry. Color the background with some Nuance, sprayinks or watercolor. ( I've used Twinkling H2o watercolors).
Finish it off with a fussycut stamped image.



On this ATC the background has been stamped into, just as on the card, but without inking up the script stamp. Finish it off with a fussycut stamped and colored image and some transparent tape, or washi tape. 

Try this technique, it always makes for a beautiful background!!

My Creative Monday for Magenta - Foliage



A new and very versatile stamp in the new collection - this trio of branches.
Using up a colorful background (A Colorwash one) from my stash, makes creating such a joyful process!

Stamping a script in the background always gives a card some more interest.
