Hello there in the middle of the summer!
Here we come with a brand new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge.
This week we'd like to see YOU'VE GOT THE EDGE!
As always you could be a random winner of a $50 voucher
and spend it in Simon Says Stamp Store.
My today's card is a Home Sweet Home card
with edges made with Pipelines die which I thought would be perfect
for a home/house theme card.
Here below I wrote steps I took to make it.
1. I took a watercolor paper, TH Mosaic stencil and Distress blue inks.
I colored the stencil with distress pads randomly and sprayed with water.
Then I placed the stencil onto the card leaving a negative pattern.
I really love this technique and use it a lot making my backgrounds.
Then I die cut the sentiment and placed underneath a paper
colored with SSS Schoolhouse Red Ink.
2. I die cut TH Sizzix Pipelines die from a heavy cardboard and applied a thin layer of gesso first and then gave the texture by touching the pieces with a brush and solid quantity of gesso. Left for drying.
3. I blended the Distress Black Soot on the pieces and finished them with Nuvo Mousse to give this silver shiny effect. I placed all the pieces with Gel Medium.
4. The houses were cut with Townscape On The Edge Bigz die
and colored with SSS Schoolhouse Red Ink.
After that I covered them with layer of Crackle Texture Paste
and then again with the red ink.
