I saw that Tim Holtz released a spritzer and I immediately thought to myself...gee, I bought one of those years and years ago! I knew exactly where it was and began creating backgrounds with it! I don't own distress markers yet but I used it with a sharpie marker and it worked great!
Here you can see that it stained the stencil but I am fine with that! I created the background just experimenting with different angles and going close to the stencil...what I got was the look of denim and I was so pleased! I love the idea if the spritzer!
For my card, I also played with white embossing paste and another stencil "falling stars" from SSS...I masked off an area where I wanted the background to go and stenciled the hearts! So fun and what a great texture to add to any project! I used the OWH lil hoot stamp set and colored in the bears using my Spectrum noir markers and added an action wobble!
I embossed the sentiment on Neenah desert storm cardstock and notched it to a banner! I also inked the edges lightly!
I think this card is adorable and will give it to my son when he finishes his midterms!!
I am entering this card in the SSS Monday "A" challenge this week! My "A" is for airbrush and animal! Thanks for stopping by!
Super cute!! Love the embossing paste stars and the striped background!
