Faux bleached flower

 

Hi There! I am here with a really simple card  today. Here is how I made it.


I began by blending 3 shades of Distress oxide across a piece of Watercolour paper. 
Once this was dry, I stamped the dandedaisy in versamark ink and heat embossed in white. 


I painted the flower with water and also splattered the background with water. I mopped the excess water and colour with a dry cloth. 

Using the same colours of distress spritz, I added some colourful splatters too.

                                      
Finally, I added a border stamped in Wilted violet ink and added the panel to the front of a 7x5" white card.
I used:
Versamark ink
Distress oxide - I used Wilted Violet, Picked Raspberry and Fossilized Amber
Distress Spritz - I used Wilted Violet, Picked Raspberry and Fossilized Amber

Thanks for looking!

  1. This is so pretty Sally and I love the contrast of the bleached flower against the purple, pink and yellow ink blended background, and the spattering finishes it perfectly. x
