More Zoom Fun

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Last week I enjoyed a Zoom crafting get together and

have finished a couple of the cards using the techniques.

First up...

We did Loll's Faux Mother of Pearl technique.

We dripped some Frost White paint on our mat and smeared it around with

a wadded up piece of plastic wrap.  With very little paint on the wrap, we pounced

it on our cardstock and let it dry while we washed the stencil.

 Then we replaced our stencil and used our blending brushes to ink it

up with Distress Ink through a stencil.

Another technique we did was Kristina's Sponging Bleed Through a Stencil.

After the image was inked through the stencil, we used small blending brushes to "bleed" 

the color around the stenciling.  It gives a much softer look.

You can use multiple colors for this technique and it gives an even better look.

Here's a photo of the shine from the Faux Mother of Pearl.

While I was waiting for inspiration to finish my tree card, I die cut a butterfly from vellum

and did the technique again.

Then I used the die to cut out my FMOP butterfly.

 

Here's a picture of the shine.

For this card's background I used an Eileen Godwin Technique.

I did some soft stenciling and stamping then used circle masks I'd cut from

heavy vellum to lightly sponge around.  When the ink was completely dry, I

used a Quickie Pen to trace around the circles and added some glitter.

It was a fun day!

Now I hope that Blogger doesn't think there's something in this post that they

don't like and delete it all.  If I disappear from Blogland, you'll know that's why.

Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!
