I had a chance to spend some time
stamping last night and wanted to create another card using the Artistic Outpost Eau de Parfum background stamp along with the new distress oxide inks
(I finally was able to order mine and received them this past week).
I decided to pair the Eau de Parfum
image with the Grunge Elements stamp set, the ODBD Custom Small Bow Dies and the ODBD Birthday Brights 6x6 Paper Pad for the As You Can See It #151 "A Banner Day" Sketch Challenge,
the Splitcoaststampers CC638 Color Challenge and the Watercolor Cooler #122 “Feminine Anything Goes” Challenge.
If you have not had a chance to check
out the Artistic Outpost blog or the other challenge sites yet, I encourage you
to do so!
Inspiration is posted each
week on the AO Blog/ AO Facebook Page and the challenge galleries have fabulous
inspiration as well!
To create this card:
1). Tap
the Distress Oxide ink pads (Worn Lipstick, Peeled Paint and Wilted Violet) onto
a craft mat, spritz with water and lay a piece of watercolor paper into the
ink. Lift up and dry with the heat tool,
spritzing additional water as you dry.
Keep repeating until you are satisfied with the results.
2). De-static
the panel with an embossing powder tool, stamp the Eau de Parfum background
stamp with Versamark™ ink, apply black embossing powder and heat set with the
heat tool. Trim the panel and mount onto a piece of black cardstock. Add additional color to the flowers and
leaves with distress markers- picked raspberries, mowed lawn and use a wisteria
wonder marker to color the perfume bottle. Add a few highlights with an extra
fine white paint pen.
3). On a piece of white cardstock, splash a bit of worn lipstick and peeled
paint distress oxide ink, ink the large splatter stamp from Grunge Elements using black soot distress ink, trim and mount onto a piece of black cardstock
before mounting onto the white card base. Use a stencil brush with a dot stencil to lightly stencil worn lipstick oxide ink to the opposite corners.
4). Create
the banner using a piece of green polka dot pattern paper from the Birthday Brights 6x6 Paper Pad, mount onto black cardstock.
Use a paint brush to apply peeled paint oxide ink and picket fence
distress stain before mounting onto the card front.
5). Add
the focal image panel onto the card front with dimensional foam.
6). Die
cut and emboss a piece of black cardstock with the ODBD Custom Small Bow Dies,
add a green button to the center and mount onto the card front to finish off
the card.
Thanks again for taking the time to
stop by and visit- hugs and I hope you have a great week, sweet friends!

This is gorgeous, Julie! So rich and antique looking! I can almost smell the perfume as I look at it! I love the look of those distress oxide inks! They have such intensity! Great take on the sketch this week! Thanks for playing along with us at As You See It Challenges!
Oh, such a gorgeously sumptuous wash of colour behind your stamp! Just wonderful! I like your sassy bow tie at the top too. Your work is always amazing and this is a great take on our sketch. Thanks so much for joining us again at As You See It.
Julie what a delightful mash of colours for your challenge card. I really like how you've used the colour wash in the background and what a terrific stamp! Beautiful!
Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
Oh Julie, how those oxide inks pop! They make an amazing background of colours for your antique perfume bottle image. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
What a gorgeous richness to this card - I love that perfume bottle - we don't see enough of them in real life any more do we? Thanks for joining in with us at Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
Awesome card! Love the color choice. Thank you for linking up with my Feminine 'Anything Goes' challenge this week!
This is a fabulous card! I love how you have really tied together a fabulous feel and you really put the new distress oxides to fabulous use! Thanks so much for joining us this week for Watercooler Wednesday!
A beautifully vintage design, yet it has a modern edge with the pop of green in the banner. Those oxide inks are very intriguing! Thanks for playing along with the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.
I always associate vintage with muted tones, yet you showed me how bright colours make beautiful vintage art as well. This is very cool. Thanks for sharing at the As You See It Challenge!
