Saturday's Workout's first theme is "It's all distressed", so I covered a piece of coated matte cardstock with a layer of Adirondack lights, then added distress inks in mustard seed and tea dye to complete the look. Inkadinkadoo's butterfly was stamped with black Staz-On and colored with Marvy markers. The text is a rub-on from Making Memories. Behind the butterfly, the Acanthus stamp by Rubber Stamped was stamped with Adirondack earthtones in "bottle", and the pieces were mounted onto contrasting cardstock.
Congratulations to Sandy and Heike for their new challenge blog! This piece is for you and all the beauty you inspire!!
Wooooooooooow Barbara this is absolutely striking. So stunning creation. The colors are fabulous.
Thanks for this awesome piece for Saturday´s Workout.
