I recently taught a couple of workshops showing participants how to create layered backgrounds using Distress Inks, water, stamping and stenciling. I had a great time with the friendly ladies and their projects turned out beautiful. Unfortunately I forgot to bring a camera with me to take pictures of their 'work'. Below are the samples that I created for the class.
The stamps are from a lovely Chapel Road set : CRA7011A-Butterfly Square, available from Class Act Stamps.
Along with Distress inks, I sprinkled a little Brusho powders and spritzed water for texture.
The tag has extra layering using Tim Holtz Bubble THS002 Stencil with Gesso and I stamped using Chapel Road mixed media stamps & Distress Inks on the background.
The main image stamping was done with Versafine Majestic Blue ink.
Dies: Sizzix Tim Holtz Tag Collection 658784. Spellbinder Die - Fluttesr S2-073 (butterfly).
Other products: Stampendous Frantage Silver Crushed Glass Glitter FRG01C, it's fantastic! (the butterfly body). Tim Holtz Crinkle Ribbon (died with Distress Inks) and Tim Holtz Metallic Trimmings.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great week,
Shirley
