Our last Technique Thursday...

Today sees the last of Joanne and Carol's technique's on white board....we have both enjoyed using the different pieces and using different products to see how well it performs and we hope that we've encouraged you to try your own techniques on some too...

So, today its a "Free for All" session:-

Here's Carol's piece:-

The base is the wavy edged arch and distress inks were applied direct to the board using a blending tool...several colours were used, but, kept separate rather than merged together. The lady stamp was then stamped ontop of the inks.....and her skirt coloured in using watered down distress ink...she was then masked off and the foliage stamp stamped over.....this was hi-lighted using a glitter pen...the edges of the arch were then daubed with gold acryllic and the woman coated with glossy accents.


Joanne has created this gorgeous piece:-


The base was coloured using adirondack dye inks and the text stamp stamped with the same ink. Along the bottom a layer of terra was applied and then heated until it bubbled, acyrllic paint was then used to hi-light the area. Beads, wire and stems were added and a gorgeous dragonfly added to finish off the piece. Pop on over to Joannes blog here for more information.

Thank You all for visiting our technique posts - we hope that we've inspired you to try the different shapes and techniques.

Please leave a comment if you've used any techniques and we'll pop on over and see what you've created.

Happy Crafting....
