Let's Ink It Up

We have a new challenge starting today over at Let's Ink It Up This time we want you to share your favourite technique with us. This challenge is sponsored by Simon Says Stamp, who have generously donated a $20 store voucher.

Our second sponsor for November is Technique Junkie, who have donated a 3D and Fun Folds papercraft CD.

The technique I'm sharing is making my own background papers, using distress inks and resist technique. I started with plain white cardstock, stamped and heat embossed in clear, then added more images with the distress inks, before using more inks applied with a blender tool. Finally, I sprayed my paper with Perfect Pearls mist.

Challenges Entered
Just Magnolia - Anything Goes
Dutch Magnolia Chickies - Favourite  Magnolia Stamp
Winter Wonderland - Glitter - wings
CES - Song or Film 'There must be an Angel by Annie Lennox'
Top Tip Tuesday - Make your own background

Thanks for looking
