City Crafter Challenge Blog - Whitewash


I chose this week's challenge at City Crafter : Whitewash.

For my DT card I cut the birds and sentiment on the Silhouette. I heat embossed a woodgrain stamp (Hero) , added a flower and then sprayed everything with white mist.....but it didn't really show very well! So, I got out some white acrylic paint and smeared it over it.

This week, Cammy  joins us as Guest Designer, so I hope you'll pop over to City Crafter, see what she and the DT have made, and enter your own whitewashed project.


I'd like to enter:
Allsorts  wings 
Ooh La La  feathered friends
Eclectic Ellapu  flora and fauna

I got the picture when you use something and it turns out different. Clever idea to add paint; your card looks gorgeous. I love your birds on a wire!

How odd, yesterday I was making a wood embossed paper with white ink to lift the pattern, but my background was black. Never got to do anything with it though, at least not yet.
I love the look of kraft and how it goes with white, I think this card is so to my taste, really, really beautiful!
