You Nailed It!
Supplies:
Avery Elle
“Stoked” stamp set AE1606 and matching die set
Instructions:
On your non
stick Teflon sheet, apply a little vintage photo distress oxide ink and lightly
spritz with water. Dab a piece of white
smooth card stock measuring 6 x 4 inches (15 x 10 cm) into the ink randomly.
Clean your sheet and dry card stock with heat gun. Then repeat this process with each of the
following colours - aged mahogany, broken china, fossilised amber, wild honey.
Once you are
happy with your coverage, dry card well.
Trim the card to measure 3 ¾ x 5 1/2 inches (9.5 x 13.5 cm) keeping the
longer piece to use later!! Then, using
a finger dauber, edge the card with Distress ink pad vintage photo. With the stencil included in the Dylusions
brick work stamp, and the finger dauber, apply some vintage photo through the
stencil to give random brink wall markings on the card. With the large star stamp in the Avery Elle
Skatebord stamp set, and using the clear VersaMark stamp pad, stamp and emboss
with the Verdigris Opaque embossing powder from Stampendous.
Matt this piece
onto a piece of black card stock slightly bigger than original piece. Then
adhere to the front of a piece of folded A5 smooth white card stock.
Cut a piece
of black card stock ¾ x 5 ½ inches (2 x 14 cm), attach the piece you cut from
the original starting piece of distress background and trim to length. Then cut
a piece of blue card stock ¼ x 5 ½ inches (1/2 x 13.5 cm) and matt again on top
as shown in picture.
Using jet
black Archival stamp pad, stamp out the skateboarder and words from the Avery
Elle stamp set. Colour the image using ink from the distress oxide stamp pads
as this ties the colours all together.
Apply a small amount of each oxide pad to your Teflon sheet. Using an your water brush, pick up the
colour and paint the image. Candied
apple was used for the skateboard. Cut out skateboarder with matching die and
foam mount to card. Trim words to appropriate
size and mount onto blue card stock then attach using foam mount.
