Distress Stains

OMG more wonderful new distress stain colors.

I just love using thes stains. When the gold,

bronze and silver was here I bought them right away.

Now all of these will be on my wishlist.

 

I can still remember about a year ago, when I

purchased the first set of colors±

and followed some of Tim´s video tutorials

and I  keep on using them.

 

 

Here a current card with

Michael Strong´s house stamp and mini tree

and Tim Holtz sentiment and stars.

Here i show you how I made the background for the card.

Added a few drops of stain in different colors to my

craftsheet and picked this up with my tag.

 

 Then dried it with my heat gun and picked up some more

colors. You can do this a few times to get the depth

of color you want.

You can stamp and emboss in white

 before you swipe the color to your paper

( did this for the house)

or you can stamp and emboss afterwards

(as I did for the tree).

 On top of the background I embossed the stars in silver

and the sentiment was added with a piece

of double sided foam tape)

 Have a creative day!
