Playing with Colour Sprays

 



Good Friday Morning Ladies, 

Here we are at the end of another week,  we are almost mid way through April!  

Karen belated Anniversary wishes to you and Alan, I hope you both had a lovely day 🥰🍾🥂

I decided to experiment with coloured sprays yesterday,  you should have seen the mess!!  I enjoyed it though.  This tag was cream, I stamped the script in three areas,  then I inked the back of a number stencil with Vintage photo and spritzed with water, I placed it over the tag and dabbed over it with kitchen paper.  I set it to dry before I used Black Embossing paste through TH Wildflower stencil. 


I added Frosted Crystal embossing powder to the embossing paste while it was still wet and heat set it, it gives an almost 'flocked' effect, it has a rough texture that you can add crayon too or chalk, I added a little blue distress watercolour pencil to the flowers, the camera hasn't picked it up well though. 

I then got to playing with the Distress Ink stains, I used a little Peacock Feathers, Mustard Seed and Antique Linen. I added some black splatters and some Black Soot around the edges.  I stamped the sentiment onto black card and added white embossing powder.   It did turn out a little darker than I hoped but its all part of experimenting.  It will be added to my Colour Inspiration journal.

I hope that you all have a fantastic Friday, 

Love and hugs to all of you, 

Sandra xxx

  3. Hi everyone
    Gorgeous tag Sandra. I haven't got any sprays and probably good because my walls and carpet would have it too 😄
    Had my nails done and then shopping at Asda. Managed to do some crafting this afternoon so felt good about that. Don't like to let you down after all the work you do every day. Hope you all had a good day. Hugs, Maria xxx

  4. Hello, another lovely sunny day, but once again a chilly wind.
    Love your tags, and the black texture paste, I’ve not seen that before.
    Was hopping to craft today, but just didn’t feel up to it.
    Hopefully I’ll get some sleep tonight. Hugs to all Lilian
