When I saw the Color Throwdown swatch for this week I really wanted to play along and after not much consideration at all, realised I really, really wanted to get down and grungy with some mixed media.
Naturally, I dug out my stuff and got to playing! Spritzing, speckling, crackling, sponging - oh my, what fun I had and although (as happens so often, lol) my card ended up different to what I had originally visualized, I am very happy with it.
Materials used:
- stamps - Tiny Text (Tim Holtz)
- card - kraft, watercolour
- distress oxide inks - walnut stain, gathered twigs, crackling campfire
- distress spray stains - crackling campfire, gathered twigs, antique linen, frayed burlap
- distress oxide sprays - ground espresso, walnut stain, wild honey, fossilized amber, dried marigold, ripe persimmon
- distress paints - antique linen, walnut stain
- other TH products - Brushstroke Butterfly dies, distress crackle paste, splat box, water spritzer, Sidekick, gathered twigs distress crayon, ground espresso archival ink
- other - leaf die cuts (SU), blending brush, sponge daubers, MISTI, Dimensionals, stitched rectangle die, Big Shot, fan paintbrush, heat tool, early espresso marker (SU), ruler, baby wipe
Thanks for calling in.
Cheers
Kerry
