Good morning, I've stayed up a bit longer than planned. Yesterday I received my Distress Oxide Sprays in the post, and its just been lovely to work with them. The colors I selected are: chipped sapphire; tattered rose; salvaged patina; bundled sage; candied apple; saltwater taffy. The other colors that I had on hand, are picked raspberry; spiced marmalade. Here are two I created.
Since I don't have a good place to take a photo, this will have to do, it would have been better in the daylight.
I had a bit of fun with the top card, light tack tape, cut into strips, and a combo of using the distress oxide sprays and ink pads dabbed with a sponge. I really like the look of a washed sunset with the look of water. I wanted a butterfly to add a touch of whimsy, so using a sticker I had on hand from the Paper House gave it a nice touch.
The next photo is done with the sprays using a stencil that came free in my pack. Art Stencils by Lisa Horton.
The inspiration came from thinking about the memory of my sister-in-law. She would have loved these. :)
I forgot to mention the card base is a thick watercolor paper. I wouldn't recommend using a light weight card stock as it would curl during the drying process.
It's another work day. I hope you all are doing well. Please leave a comment, I really appreciate hearing from you. ♥
Blessings, Mary ♥
**Just an added note, when spraying make sure to cover those things you don't want splotched. My poor keyboard suffered in the process! **
It can be wiped off. lol
