I've been playing in my stamp studio again with my new ink pads, Distress Oxide by Tim Holtz. Today's card feature two techniques using stencils with these hybrid inks.
This card started by blending 3 colors, Peacock Feathers, Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean on a piece of white card stock. Because these inks have not only die ink but also pigment ink, they blend like butter. The rich color coats the top of the paper beautifully.
Next step is to adhere this panel to a stencil, I used the Winter Wonderland stencil by FSJ. With the inked side of the paper up and the stencil on top, I misted the paper with water. Leave this on for a minute and then remove the stencil to see the oxidation that occurred. I will leave a beautiful background.
I stamped images from the Most Wonderful stamp set over the top with Lucky Clover Distress Oxide ink.
Technique number 2, uses the Buffalo Check stencil by FSJ.
I started with a piece of white card stock and coated it with Black Soot distress oxide ink, by rubbing the pad direct to paper. Then I took the Buffalo Check stencil and misted it several times with water, laid the wet side down onto my ink coated paper. Let this sit for a minute or so and use a paper towel to press on the stencil so that it comes in contact with the entire surface of the card stock.
You can watch the making of these cards in the video below. If you have not already LIKED my facebook page make sure you do so that you can catch me when I go live each Monday and Friday night.
Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope you are inspired to try something new with your paper crafting today. Below you will find links to the products I used to create these cards.
