Hello my fabulous friends!
I'm here to share a card I made using DCWV Pumpkin Patch stack.
This stack is a really fun fall stack! I love the rich colors and the great designs!
Sometimes, even when I like a particular patterned paper, I want to step it up a notch.. Here's one fun way to do just that...
Tape a stencil down over your patterned paper.
Sponge on some clear gesso. I like using my ink blending tool and a foam blending pad to do this, then I just wash out the pad with soap and water and let it dry, then I can reuse the pad. However, you can use a makeup wedge instead if you want.
Once it's dry, apply ink over the paper.
Use a damp rag to wipe off the ink from the gesso. The gesso acts as a resist and will protect the pattern of the paper in the areas it covers.
This is a fun way to alter your patterned paper for a little added interest!
REMEMBER, you still have a few more days to get your cards in! The last drawing will be held this Friday October 25th! All the details are HERE!
Enjoy!
