Fun technique if you want to give it a try. Here are my 4 tries, the top two or with Distress inks and oxides, the bottom two are with Dye inks. The one I chose for my card was the die ink. You use glossy cardstock for this technique, I think that is why I have a bit of shine in this picture.
Memento - Desert Sand and Rich Cocoa inks for background
Our Daily bread designs - Nest stamp (fussy cut, colored w/markers)
Crafty Secrets - Bird Notes stamp (bird, fussy cut, colored w/markers)
Technique Tuesday - Happy Birthday sentiment stamp

ReplyDeleteI love making wood grained backgrounds, yours came out beautifully! Especially topped with that sweet nest of eggs and MaMa birdie!
ReplyDeleteFabulous backgrounds, Connie! I think they ALL look amazing. I do love wood grain, but usually rely on designer paper. This technique produces very realistic results. The bird stamp with your coloring is exceptionally pertty, too!
ReplyDeleteYour wood backgrounds are brilliant! The bird with her nest sit perfectly against the wood panel.
ReplyDeleteI love the natural wood look. I've not seen that technique before. Thank you for sharing it with us.
