Joy Shared Multiplied

I wanted to share another newly released stamp from Technique Junkies Stamps!

The stamp is called Hibiscus Panel

It took a bit of work to get this look, but it wasn't too taxing!!!

Here's how I did it!

First, I stamped the main image in Versamark and embossed in black.

I coloured the flowers in with My Zig Clean Brush Markers and cut the flowers off the image

To make the background, I played with my Distress Oxide Inks in 

Pistachio, Broken China, Peeled Paint and Wilted Violet.

I used my sponging tool to make circles in various colours

NEXT

I layed my Gothic Swirl Stencil over the panel and sprayed it with water.

I lifted the stencil and gently dobbed the excess water off. Dobbed...is that a word? Well maybe dabbed.....dabbed, dobbed , wipe up the extra water already!!!!

I heat set the panel and then using purple ink, stamped the image onto the background using my misti. Why did I use the MISTI you ask? Well, so I could stamp again with Versamark ink so I could then emboss it with clear embossing powder. Supah Cool!!!!

I took the cut flowers and mounted them over the main image

Lastly, I stamped the Joy sentiment, which is from the Sentimental Sayings stamp set

Enjoy!!!!
