Having to go for a two-fer again this week! I needed to do a masking challenge for my OWSE yahoo group and the theme at SSSS this week was Travel, so I am using this piece for both. I started out with a vanilla cardstock and laid my masks on it. Sprayed with color washes in butterscotch and sunset orange. Dabbed and removed the masks. Using an ink blender, I added Vintage photo and then Walnut Stain to the edges of the card for depth. I then stamped many background images randomly using Archival inks in a few colors, mostly sepia, coffee, and olive. i also added a few in Monarch Orange. Yum! I then stamped the car in embossing ink and then black powder and heated it. Then stamped the verses in black archival and coffee archival inks. Mounted it to a brown cardstock and called it finished. Will make a nice page to a 6 x 6 I think so am keeping it flat without embellies at this point.
