Cut a piece of white card to 7 3/4 x 3 3/4". Use your blending brush to apply Heather over the card, keeping it darker around the edges and fading out towards the centre. |
Splatter with water drops and mop up the excess ink with a paper towel. |
|
Stamp the beautiful dreamcatcher from Boho chic, with the Heather, coming on to the top left of the card. Use a paint brush to apply water to areas of the design. Wait a few seconds for the water to activate the ink, then "lift" out the ink with a paper towel, repeating this until you are happy with the effect. This is referred to as "faux bleaching". |
|
On a seperate piece of white card, apply Heather but intensify the depth of colour. Stamp just the centre circle design of the dreamcatcher, in Heather. |
|
Fussy cut the centre circle, as seen here. |
|
Adhere the inked circle to the centre of your stamped artwork, with foam pads for added dimension. |
|
Use your white gel pen to add accents and highlights to your stamped artwork. |
|
Using your sentiment stamp as a size guide, apply Heather within one of the IMALA stencil frames to create a darker inked panel. |
|
Stamp the sentiment in Heather, within the inked panel. |
|
Mat your artwork on to your white DL card blank. |
|
Finally, apply liquid pearl drops on to your artwork, where required. |
