Be Authentic

It was playtime again this weekend and I'm still having fun with inks and sprays a la Tim Holtz. This card came about because I saw a colour combination I liked...and we all know, don't we, that there's not much more intrinsically alluring to a crafter than seeing something you want to emulate! Lol. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, after all. I've perhaps made it a tad grungier than I'm comfortable with, but as artists we have to keep pushing ourselves to try new things and step outside that box, so...it is what it is.


Materials used:
  • stamps - Mini Bird Crazy and Things (TH), Forever Fern (SU)
  • card - blushing bride, watercolour, not quite navy
  • distress oxide inks - speckled egg, tattered rose, faded jeans, brushed corduroy, fired brick
  • other TH products - speckled egg distress oxide spray, stencil THMS001, water spritzer, quote chips, chitchat stickers
  • other - blending brush, paintbrush, Tombow glue, stitched rectangle die, Big Shot, craft foam

Thanks for dropping by. Stay safe.

Cheers
Kez
