Thank you for joining us for the Spritz and Splatter Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.
This week we are challenging you to: MAKE A BOOKMARK / BE INSPIRED BY BOOKS
1 - I cut two strips of cardboard about the size of tag #8, only narrower.
2 - I ideally divided the cardboard strip in half and, with the Sparkle Fade stencil by Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous in mini version (set 62), I spread Ranger Distress Texture Paste Opaque. Immediately after removing the stencil I sprinkled the two Glaze powders, Antique Linen and Speckled Egg and waited for it to dry to heat it.
3 - I stamped the floral motifs from the Floral Trims CMS 461 set and colored them with the Distress Ink pads. I am not very skilled, but despite everything these stamps become beautiful even if colored badly!
4 - I cut the shapes with the very useful matching dies by Simon Says Stamp. I glued them and left a space to see the stencil pattern
5 - I finished by adding a couple of sentences from the Idea-ology Small Talk pack!
6 - If you want to use them as bookmarks I recommend spraying them with Distress Resist Spray Ranger which isolates the colors or you can apply a coat of Collage Medium Matte.
I hope you like them and that the explanation of how I made them was useful.
