Today’s cards feature new stamps and dies and a fun Textured Background Technique!
GG0170 Owl and The Pussycat was colored with Copic Markers. The *wrought iron* embellishment is actually the new D038 Snowflake Pendant Die which I cut in half.
The background was created by using Chicken Feed Acrylic Paint on regular white cardstock. I covered the panel using horizontal swipes, leaving the paint thicker in areas and leaving other areas white.
When the paint was dry, I then added some Art Anthology Sorbet Dimensional Gel Paint in Frost. Again, I covered the panel in a horizontal direction. I left thicker areas an others that were smooth until I had the desired effect.
Once dry I attached the panel to my cardstock and then covered the long edges with Washi Tape.
I stamped EE0161 Brewing Up A Batch 2 on a piece of painted cardstock with Stazon and then covered the stamping with the Dimensional Gel Paint.
This is a great way to add a bit of interest to a card without adding fussiness! Give it a try!
