ATC's can hold a lot of techniques - 4



For some basics on using stencils, I tried all sorts of techniques on ATC's.
Today the fourth one.

Here is how you make this background:
Sponge the background with different colors of distress inks. Position your stencil onto cardstock, and outline the image with a black marker. Take away color inside the image with bleach. Leave to dry.
Stamp a script randomly over the background.

ATC's can hold a lot of techniques - 1


For some basics on using stencils, I tried all sorts of techniques on ATC's.

Here is how you make this background:
Paint matte medium on your stencil, print that onto cardstock.
Leave to dry.
Sponge with  different colors of distress inks.
You can choose to add some stamping, a script or so, but I chose to leave it like this.

Sunny card!


I've been playing with waterbased markers on my stamps.
I created a custom made MISTI, so I could stamp every color seperately, building it up from light to dark.
The script stamp has also been colored with a waterbased marker.
I've misted before stamping, and cleaned it off inbetween.

I've also sponged with ink from the marker.

I am sure I'll be using this technique again, it's fun!




Hope you like it!
