Hello Crafty Friends! Today, I am up on the Magenta blog with my monthly DT post sharing this mixed media card creation. From my last post, you know that I have been playing with a faux plaster/stone floral mixed media technique with a variety of paste bases.
I started by spreading out some Golden Light Molding Paste on a craft mat. Once it was not sticky to the touch, I spritzed the Script and Postmark stamp with water and then pressed it into the paste in a variety of places. Next, I spritzed and pressed the Poppies stamp into the paste.
Once dry, I added watered down black acrylic paint so it would seep into the script and cracks. After letting it set up a minute or two, I removed the excess off the top surface with a baby wipe. Then, I painted the poppies with Dina Wakley Scribble Sticks using a waterbrush. Once dry, I matted it on a 4" x 6" black card base with a layer of cereal box board to give it a little dimension. Lastly, I added a slightly distressed sticker sentiment.
Supplies: Script and Post and Poppies stamps (Magenta), Light Molding Paste (Golden), black acrylic paint (DecoArts), Dina Wakley Sedona and Olive Scribble Sticks (Ranger), Tim Holtz Big Chat sticker (Advantus), black cardstock (Bazzill), white cardstock card base (Staples)
Once again, I am pleased with how this one turned out. I have two more faux plaster/stone floral paste bases that I have yet to play with. Looking forward to trying them out too.
TTFN,

Beautiful Cassandra I love the effect of the faux plaster. I really want to try this :)
This is captivatingly beautiful. I'd honestly frame and hang a stunning work of art like this card, if I received it. What magnificent gifts you're creating for your recipients.
