Hello, Crafty Makers!
Today, I crafted two cards for submission to
CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge.
~~~~~~~~~
For my first design, I used the smoosh technique with Ranger Distress Oxide Inks to create my "faux" watercolored background. I arranged my feather stamps using my Tim Holtz Stamping Tool. I had only four small stamps in this collection, so I had to stamp twice but using the tool made short work of that. I added Wink of Stella to the feathers and I was done!

For this second project, I first stamped and heat embossed the feathers and sentiment. Then, I painted my background using my distress inks. I felt the white spaces needed to be toned down to allow the white embossed feathers to stand out more. I achieved this by lightly dabbing Vintage Photo Distress Ink on most of the white spaces and to distress the edges of the panel. The final touch was to stamp a few star sprays around a few of the feathers and apply a little Wink of Stella to my feathers. I was going for an abstract presentation and I think I got there.
