It's my turn to do the
Saturday StepXStep at
Frilly & Funkie. I really didn't know what to show you, as my sickly mind (;-D) has not been focused on crafting lately, but since the challenge at
Simon Says Stamp & Show was "Rustification", I decided to do a tutorial on how to create an old rusted look using Distress Ink and Ranger's Clear Fine Embossing Powder, called...and appropriately I might add...Distress Ink Enameled Rust, that I learned from
Tim at
Ranger U, but with a few addends. I initially wanted to do another video, but my throat and head said no way, so instead there are mounds of pictures! Here are all the finished projects that I created making a Masterboard, but to see how I created the rust look, head on over to
Frilly & Funkie.
|
...two #8 tags, one of which goes to the talented Sandra of Made By Sannie for a little side swap (Sounds shady!) we have going. The postcard is pretty much the same as the tags, but it was made from a separate rusted piece I was experimenting with before the Masterboard. It is for a swap from another Yahoo Group I'm in, and is for Elena of My Name Is Elena. |
|
The background of the tag before the ScreamPunk (A name I read on someone's blog.) Guy was added.That someone was Shelly. Remember her ScreamPunk Pop Up Tag? |
|
His goggles are made of Liquid Pearls, and I added his spine bones to hold his neck tie and skeleton key. |
|
This is the postcard, although it could never be mailed like this! I just can't help it...it needed lots of stuff! |
|
I decorated the back, and here is the stamp I made. |
Supplies:
I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!
Eek! These remind me of the creatures on Grimm, which I happen to be watching right now! ;-)
