I used my favorite technique!

 

Playing with stamps, paper and color - that's my favorite technique; hence the name of my blog! Yes, that's all one layer, except for that yellowish part on the clock. That is a piece of the masking paper I used to mask the stamp when inking; I liked it so much, so decided to adhere a piece to the top of the clock...

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..
