I recently spent some time
crafting with a few friends and decided to play with my Distress Oxides which I
still haven’t had chance to experiment with nearly enough. After several – in
the bin backgrounds – I mopped up some ink left on my craft mat and decided I
liked them! I was using blue/green tones of Oxides – onto the craft mat and
spritzing with water. I took the latticework stencil and added further colour.
I added a little script stamping
to add to the background (Lin Brown ELB 30) before stamping one of the
wildflowers. I then die cut several
wildflowers onto coloured card before mounting onto the same colour.
A birthday sentiment to finish!
See you next week!

Beautiful results Nikki, Blues together always remind me of Fine Delph Pottery Prints. I must admit I have not experimented with the Oxides as much as I thought I would but it's great when you achieve a result you are happy with. Wonderful cards for those special days.
