Hello again! It's been a changeable week weather wise here in Wales but spring is definitely here! The snowdrops are out, daffs are opening and the sun has been shining more and more.
This week I want to show you a project I did using the lovely melty clock from the new range of stamps by Visible Image.
The clock itself is a fantastic stamp but the sentiment that comes with it is perfect for all sorts of occasions.
I started the piece with a Brusho coloured background in green, turquoise and purple. When this was dry I brushed lightly over the whole piece with some Gesso keeping the brush as dry as possible and barely touching the paper. It lightens the colour and gives a worn look, a bit like faded denim. It also gives a great key to the embossing powder!
Once the Gesso was dry I took the polka dot stamp and dipped it in some liquid Brusho, spritzed the stamp with more water and stamped it onto the background. I left it in place so that the paint drained onto the page.
I then stamped the clock directly onto the background and embossed it with black powder. I stamped the sentiment onto a separate piece of card.
The piece of card was torn to size and then layered up on more torn card in similar colours.
