While having my grayer out for gel plate printing I decided to make some simple backgrounds with Distress Oxides and the brayer.
On white card stock I bartered Distress Oxide peacock feathers and cracked pistachio.
Once dry I die cut it with a die from Tim Holtz “Splat” die set and applied it to a white card stock base card.
Next I stamped the sentiment from Paper Smooches “Simply Said” using Memento tuxedo black ink.
I need some cards for my son that don’t say “get well” as he hates being reminded he has COVID.
On more white card stock I stamped the image from Paper Smooches “Surf & Turf” set with the same ink and colored it with Copic markers.
This I cut out and foam taped t the car front.
What an adorable card! I just started playing around with oxide inks and a gel press. So far I'm loving the look. I don't know what took me so long to gather up these supplies!
