I wanted to experiment with
Distress Oxide Inks on Kraft Cardstock.
I firstly applied Broken
China & Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Ink
through a Tim Holtz
Flourish Stencil onto kraft cardstock.
It reminded me of an underwater
scene, so I decided to make a card with that theme.
Hero Arts Stamps were used
with Faded Jeans & Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Inks
for the Sea Horses,
Starfish & Shells. Some were clear
heat embossed
before colouring with
Distress Oxide Inks & the Water colour Brush.
The effect is quite subtle
& soft.
I added interest by die
cutting & layering the background with Sizzix Stitched Oval Thinlits,
& highlights &
splatters of Antique Bronze Distress Stain.
The sentiment is a Sizzix
Thinlit die cut from the Teal card stock
& given dimension with
Glossy Accents.
The Stamped images were
fussy cut & shaped slightly,
before grouping in a
cluster & elevated with foam dots.
Hope you are inspired to play with these inks soon.
Cheers Deb
