I worked on a That's Crafty! White Greyboard 4 x 4 square cornered panel, initially covering it with strips of AALL and Creates Washi Tape #3. Although I do love the design and colour of this washi on this occasion I wanted to 'knock it back' so it was more suggested than obvious. So I lightly brayered over the tape with white gesso, That's Crafty! Teal multi surface paint and black acrylic paint.

A quick dry with a heat gun and the background was ready for some stamping detail.

For this I used just the text and numbers from AAll and Creates #384. Lined Hexagon and #383 Scripted Hexagons - both stamps are designed by Bipasha BK 

As is often the case with me, the focal feature is the sum of a few parts. From the bottom up: 

- a That's Crafty! ATcoin painted with black acrylic paint and crackled with DecoArt Crackle paint....

....- a That's Crafty! Greyboard 'Saw Blade' piece painted black.. 

- a small woodchip circle painted white and stamped with some of the numbers on AALL and Creates #383 stamp. Theres also a circle of washi tape cut out of AALL and Creates Washi tape #1 adhered to the centre. 

- A stamped butterfly taken from That's Crafty's Arty Wings stampset coloured with one of Seth Apters Aladine Izink dye sprays: Sea Spray. 

To finish off the overall design I added a couple of lengths of That's Crafty! Craftyboard chain (painted black) to the top right and bottom left of the panel ....

... and a few small pieces of Tim Holtz label tape to the top left and bottom right of the panel. 

Thanks for joining me today. I appreciate you taking the time to stop by.

Have a great creative week 

Take Care
