Stay at home cards

While we all try to stay at home as much as possible

(even though one can go out a little more than before),

I still make a card every day using my Club Scrap

stash of stamps and papers.

This time I want to explain a little more

about the techniques I have used.

Card #52

Stamps from the kit Surf's Up 06/2006

Card #53

Stamps from the kit Sea Breeze 07/2018

For this card I used Tim Holtz texture paste and

fossilized amber distress glaze. I took a stencil from

Club Scrap Cape Cod kit and used it to apply the

texture paste through the open spaces. 

When still wet I added the distress glaze.

Now I leaf it to air dry for about 30 minutes.

Then I used the heattool to emboss the glaze.

With several colors of distress oxide ink I colored

the background panel.

Card #54

Here I used the hybrid kit Farm Critters 06/2019

After seeing Tim Holtz's live video on Facebook

yesterday, I wanted to try his collage technique with

distress crayons. I printed these images on printer

paper to use as collage paper. I tore it into pieces

and with collage medium I glued it to the background.

When the medum was dry I used my crayons 

to color the paper and with some water too (like Tim

showed in the tutorial) .

When the coloring was finished, I added 

this stamp with archival black.
