Stain Resist Technique

Technique Junkies' had a card swap this month where you got to chose a technique from one of their magazines or Cds .  I chose the stained resist technique to make the background of this card.  I embossed my background image by Stamp Barn with white embossing powder and then used distress stains to colour the background.  

I am not sure who made the rubber stamp lady, it is from my stash of unmounted rubber stamps.  The sentiment and the little tages are a punch and stamp from Stampin Up.  I coloured my image with Copic markers, added a ribbon, and heart to complete the card.Thanks for looking.  Have a creative week.

Paint Dabbers and Distress Inks - Day 4

I created this tag for day four as card captain at Michael Strong Rubber Stamps using Mike’s dragonfly rubber stamp again along with several different rubber stamps. I recently had purchased some distress ink stains and wanted to try them on a tag.

I first stamped the tag with a couple of Mike’s dragonflies using Pearl Adirondack’s Metallic Acrylic Paint Dabber. I then rubbed three different colours of distress stains on the tag. The Acrylic Paint Dabbers act as a resist and make an interesting pattern on the tag.

I then stamped a couple of different background stamps with Stazon Ink. To complete the tag I added a dragonfly stamped on black paper with the Pearl Acrylic Paint.
