Hi everyone! I wanted to have a quick play last weekend because my time in the craft room is quite limited at the moment.
I have been helping out at a Post Office on a neighbouring island due to the owner having a hip replacement. I am also working more shifts at our local RSL club. No time for much else, waaah.
When I was in the UK for the Happy Little Stampers Craft Retreat, Carol showed us a few techniques on masking. I bought some drawing gum thanks to Carol and decided to break it out and give it a go with my brushos.
Here is my card -
I created a mask for the balloon (using a die cut and post-it tape) and masked around the edges and surrounding area with the masking fluid.
I have created a video tutorial for this technique but am having trouble with my video editor. Hopefully I will actually get it done and uploaded this century!
I sprinkled my brusho colours onto my craft mat, spritzed them with water and used a brush to apply the colours. I added splats by loading up my paintbrush with the same colours and flicking it onto the paper.
The sentiment is from the Happy Little Stampers Fun Birthday Sentiments set.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges -
Southern Ridge - Your Favourites (mine are definitely Brushos)
Craft for the Craic - photo inspiration
Powder Power
Use Embossing Powders or Pigment Powders.
Thanks for popping in today. Have a great Wednesday!
