Experimenting with Paper



Example #1
It all started with Tim Holtz Lost and Found double sided designer paper.

Dry brush Liquitex iridescent pearlescent paint over the blue designer paper.
White gesso over the iridescent paint.
This was done with a hit and miss technique with semi-dry brush of white gesso. Let dry.
Apply Distress Gathered Twig ink over the gesso,
with an inked foam blending tool, then spray with water and heat set to dry.
Apply Distress RipePersimmon ink over the gathered twig inked piece with an inked
foam blending tool, then spray with water and heat set to dry.
Apply Distress Aged Mahogany ink with an
inked foam blending tool, then spray with water and then heat set to dry.
.
I love the results of this and would never dream
 it all started as Tim Holtz scrapbook paper if I hadn't done it myself.

Example #2
Example #3

In example #3; I sprayed Perfect Pearls Mist (Heirloon Gold) over example #2 tag and then heat set to dry.

Update:
This morning, I made this example using white card stock and supplies listed above!

The possibilities are endless what you can do with your stamping supplies!
Do you love to play with ink and paper?
