Another Blended Background with Faux Bleaching

 


Good Morning Ladies,  

Today feels a bit like a Friday with it being Good Friday, I do love a bank holiday weekend,   extra nice when its a double.  The weather doesn't look that great though.  Isn't that always the case with Bank Holiday.  

Today's card is another Blended Oxide Background,  Salvaged Patina, Salty Ocean and Blueprint Sketch.  I then used my 'bargain' Tim Holtz Floral Outline stamp, I stamped in Versamark and added white Embossing powder and heat set,  I then took a small paintbrush and a piece of kitchen towel and 'painted' each flower and leaf with wYer and used kitchen roll to dab each piece to lift the ink.  It looks really effective.  I finished with a sime sentiment for a simple look. 

I hope that you all have a good Thursday, 

Love & hugs to all of you, 

Sandra xxx

  3. Hello, it’s sunny but a very chilly wind. I have managed to plant my beans and sweet peas today a bit late but never mind.
    Another lovely card Sandra, not tried that technique before but will definitely give it a go.
    Karen we are also having trouble getting our prescriptions, R had to wait ages for his pen and I’m still waiting for mine only have two days left.
    It’s feels like Sunday as R has been playing the organ at church this morning, he is also playing tomorrow ( Good Friday) and Sunday, so I will be able to do some crafting hopefully.
    Enjoy the rest of your day. Lilian

    1. Hello Sandra and everyone
      Love this blue card and definitely a technique I would want to add to my list of to-do.
      Had a phone call this afternoon, my sister was being discharged, obviously no doctors working over the holiday period, they hope to carry out her procedures in outpatients after the holidays. I know she’ll be pleased to be back home and as long as she is not in any pain or discomfort she will be happy doing her own thing. Just hope she is not on a long waiting list.
      Take care everyone, love Brenda xxx
