i made a couple of cards using techniques from tim's online class
embossing with reverse print stamps and distress inking
i used the 'flick' technique on the card on the right but used perfect pearl spray instead of plain water [also i crackle painted the ticket but its not dry yet hence 'shine']
i was photographed by our local newspaper handing over a batch of cards to my charity's shop yesterday to help them in their campaign to improve our poor postal service here in brighton .... i buy a lot of my supplies for my crafting online - as a lot of us do - and have had dreadful problems with delays etc [up to 3 weeks!!]
i hope that it might help with sales!!!
Love your grungy cards, they don't look 'quick'. Well done on campaigning for a better postal service. I'm rather surprised it's bad in Brighton - it's hardly the middle of nowhere.
ReplyDeleteTony loving the look of these cards. I have been following your take on CC101 and all your art have all been really fab.
ReplyDeleteI have only tried a couple of techniques so far, but totally liking the new knowledge so far.
