Genuine Art: Specimen B

The present biweekly challenge at the Everything Wendy Vecchi Yahoo Group is based on using "Canvas" from Wendy's Book 4. I decided to use three, and use Tim's new "Summer Colors of Distress Ink" to fulfill the challenge at Simon Says Stamp & Show as well.

I misted the ornate Art Part frame with Sailboat Blue Color Wash.

I stamped two Wendy images on the frame in Jet Black Archival.

I added some Adirondack Metallic Mixative Alcohol Ink onto the ornate parts, some torn Steampunk Tim paper, and inked everything in Walnut Stain Distress Ink.

I inked the canvases with Salty Ocean Distress Ink.

Wendy images were stamped in Manganese Archival Ink.

I flicked water onto the canvases and edged them out in Walnut Stain.

I inked the Gear Art Parts with Picked Raspberry Distress Ink, and gave them a dotted stamping in Jet Black.

More Art Parts were inked, this time in the last of the Summer Distress Ink colors, Mowed Lawn, along with a stamped grid pattern.

Wendy's technique of making a "Custom Epoxy Embellishment" was used to make the a part of the title piece ART.

 

Here it is on my wall.

August ATC's Received

I've received my August ATC's from the All Things Tim Yahoo Group Monthly Swap. 

Donna Jean Eno (I love this! The background paper is perfect, the charm so so cute, and the Grunge suitcase just seals in the theme! Fabulous ATC!)

Sandy Nolan (It took me a second to figure this out, but once I did, I was amazed! I love it! The doors are such a fabulous idea...WOW! The love all the stamping everywhere! Awesome design!)

 

Susan Salyer (This is totally grungy yumminess, and I love all the images and embossing, but the design is WAY COOL!!! Love the brad usage to make this little hidden gem of a mini book! This rocks!)

 

And, here is mine again.

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!
