Crazy Bottled Flower
I have had a day off work today and, after discharging my school governor duties, I took the opportunity to play in the Studio. I wanted to have a go at crazed bottle technique that is this fortnight's challenge at the Everything Wendy Vecchi group and to make something colourful for Simon Says Stamp and Show.
The details about the bottle can be found here on Wendy's blog. Once the bottle was dry I used Broken China Distress Stain with a little Black Soot Distress Ink. I added a ribbon and an ideaology key for a finishing touch. The Shrine Art Part and the trim were painted with Antique Lace PaperArtsy Fresco Finish paint. I then added script in Shaded Lilac and Seedless Preserves Distress Inks. I stamped the background with stamps from Botantical Art in Seedless Preserves.
The flower was made from Clearly for Art Whiteout. I stamped three flowers and coloured them with Alcohol Inks and then heat them and shaped them. In the centre I added an ideaology Hitch Fastener. I made a little Clearly for Art butterfly. The Art Part frame was inked in Dusty Concord Distress Stain and I used my favourite dotty stamp! I hope that the use of 'purple' counts as a kaleidoscope of colour..! It is a kaleidoscope of one colour...!
I hope you have a great weekend. We have some really nice things planned - with a little inky time squeezed in!
