Welcome to the Club Scrap Artist Team challenge! This month we all received the Weathered Florals unmounted stamps to create with. Believe it or not, I did not already have this collection ;-) I know, shocking.
If you've arrived here from the very talented Donna you're in the right spot or you can start from the beginning at Club Scrap.
I came across this white pencil highlighting technique while watching Jennifer McGuire YouTube videos. I really like this one because I could stamp the image and take the panels on the go and finish up elsewhere.
Stamp the panel with white ink and heat set.
Shade in the images with a white pencil to your liking. Make sure to sharpen pencil often.
Stamp sentiment and emboss with white embossing powder. I just kept it simple to let the art work speak for itself.
I couldn't help it...I really liked this technique so I created one in red as well.
Using my grid ruler I added borders along the sides.
While I was embossing with the white powder, I really loved the look of white on the red card stock and started playing with the images. The red flowers really took my breath away. I stamped and embossed several flowers and cut different layers to give dimension.
This next card I used the lines to create my own plaid look. I originally tried several panels with purples, grays and red and they just didn't look right. I think softer colors work better. I also kept embellishments to minimum since the background is heavy.
Club Scrap papers, stamp and wooden title. Dazzles stickers.
