Using my Misti (so that I could
register my images for the die cutting and assembly) and the Penny Black
"Magnolia Rhapsody" stamp. Inked the stamp using Distress mini pads -
"Picked Raspberry" all over the flowers and buds, "Wilted
Violet" flicked on the base of the flowers and buds, then hit here and
there on the flowers and buds with "Fossilized Amber".
All over the leaves and branches
with "Mowed Lawn", here and there on the leaves with "Forest
Moss" and here and there on the branches with "Ground Espresso".
Misted with water and stamped onto white
cardstock.
Repeated the process to stamp on
another piece of white cardstock.
Placed the 2 dies on a desirable
area of the stamping and die cut. (that's the above image)
You'll notice that some of that
image has the background colored... I experimented on it to pick my blue
watercolor for the background.
I filled a waterbrush with water and
some of that blue color. Squeezed some out while painting around my stamped
image. I also picked up some of the blue paint to add intensity is some areas,
blending and moving the color around. I purposely touched part of the stamped
image which became activated with the wetness giving a diffused edge. Allowed my
background to dry.
Used the negative die cut piece
aligned with my painted background piece to position my die cut words to fall
exactly on the stamped image. I also die cut 2 more layers from white cardstock
to add height to my words. Glued them down.
