Hi fellow travellers.............it's Friday again and time to join in a new challenge theme at
A Vintage Journey. Our very talented Creative Guide, Jenny, is the host for this fortnight and she would love to see
'Texture' on your projects.
Here is my 'Textured' make:
I took a canvas board and initially I added some Distress Paints as I was not quite sure where I was going with this project. ( Vintage Photo, Pickled Raspberry and Blue China)
I then decided to add some texture using Tim Holtz Bubble stencil and some randomly applied texture paste using my fingers. Once the paste was dry I sprayed Melted Chocolate and London Blue Dylusion's over the painted canvas. Treasure Gold was then applied to the raised areas.
I stamped Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous sentiment in Blue Archival ink on to some plain cotton fabric, which was frayed along the edges. Taking some Eclectic Elements fabric I ran it through the big shot using Tim's Movers and Shapers Mini Tattered Florals and Butterfly die. I took a Distress Marker around the edges of the fabric to give more definition.. An Idea-Ology spinner completes the look x
I thought I would try and heat emboss some script on to the floral, however, I was not too successful but decided that I would continue to make the floral anyway. Once complete I really liked the added texture of the embossing powders on the EE fabric. What do you think? The floral was placed on a scrap of hessian and some wire attached :-)
