Guess What?! Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co. has a new feature starting at Speedy TV and it's called Tutorial Time! Yep, tutorials for all levels of stampers/crafters. I have always been pretty much in a rut with my stamping - I never did try many new techniques - well being on this DT is going to allow me to expand my horizons!
Our team's first tutorial is from Tammylee Newberry and it's titled Coloring on Distress Inks - it was easy and fun - and lots of possibilities with this tutorial. I think next time, I will use a smaller piece of wadded up paper for my BG!

What a relaxing look to this card, Kathy! Your soft bg is wonderful for showing off the Adirondack set. Well done, GF!
ReplyDeleteI love the softness and the stamp set you used. I hope to get to know you better Kathy while on the team.
ReplyDeleteLovely example of this technique! Love your layout & layered framing! (Pretty inside too)
ReplyDeleteA very pretty card Kathy, the background is perfect with your images. Very peaceful scene you created :)
ReplyDeleteLike the scene you created. Tried the technique. Tried a couple Tim Holtz colors for background (Wild Honey & Broken China) each on different paper not together. Used Tiger stamp from Big Cats and my coloring with Prisma Color markers that my daughter gave me made the Tiger look too dark/scary. I know Tigers are wild but they are bee-utiful looking unlike my colored image. I'm thinking I may need an image with less detail or lighter color coloring. I have Oopsy Daisy and am going to give it a try.

what a great card! Very nice!
ReplyDeleteLove this with the monochromatic layout! Well done!
ReplyDeleteI don't think you need fret about the right or wrong size wad of paper for your background. It looks just fine behind your chair and tree.
ReplyDeleteI love this masculine card. It has such a relaxing feel to the card. Great job on this technique.
ReplyDeleteGreat card. Inside looks pretty too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful, serene card Kathy!
ReplyDeleteKathy, this is such a pretty neutral creation. I need to get this set back out. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeletevery lovely card kathy.
