My mixed media card uses both mediums.
I began by adhering a transparent layer (acetate sheet) over an oxide spray background then cut four frames from coral card, glueing them together and inking the edges. The bird is another acetate layer. On my background I embossed some vellum with a 3D woodgrain texture and attached it with the rough side up. Everything was given some white gouache splatters before the sentiment was added.
Materials used:
- acetate - Transparent Layers, Transparent Things 2 (both Tim Holtz)
- frame dies - Nesting Piercing Ticket Frames (Waffle Flower)
- oxide sprays - salvaged patina, saltwater taffy, scattered straw
- embossing folder - Lumber Large 3D Texture Fades (Tim Holtz)
- other - blending brushes, Big Shot, Pixie spray adhesive, foam tape, white gouache, fan brush, Metallic Sticker Book (Tim Holtz)
I hope you'll check out the lovely projects the STB design team made and be inspired to play along with the challenge.
Thanks for stopping by.
Cheers
Kerry
