Eau de Parfum

Happy Saturday Everyone!  Julie, here sharing simple Mixed Media card designed with the Eau de Parfum background stamp along with the Grunge Elements stamp set, the Custom Small Bow Dies and the Birthday Brights 6x6 Paper Pad (all available from Our Daily Bread Designs).

To create the background for the Eau de Parfum image, distress oxide inks (worn lipstick, peeled paint and wilted violet) were tapped onto a craft mat and spritzed with water.  A piece of watercolor paper was dipped into the ink, lifted up and dried with a heat tool before additional layers of ink were added. 

After the panel was thoroughly dried, the Eau de Parfum image was heat embossed with black embossing powder over the oxide background.  Additional color and details were added with the wilted violet oxide ink and a picked raspberry and mowed lawn distress marker were used for the flowers/leaves as well as an extra fine white paint pen for a few highlights.  The entire panel was trimmed and mounted onto black cardstock.

The banner was created from a piece of the green polka dot pattern paper out of the Birthday Brights 6x6 Paper Pad, mounted onto black cardstock and distressed with a bit of peeled paint oxide ink as well as picket fence distress stain.

The white card front was layered onto black cardstock and a bit of the peeled paint and worn lipstick oxide inks were splattered onto the corners.  Additional distressing was added with the large splatter stamp from Grunge Elements using black soot distress ink.

The focal image was mounted with dimensional foam and the card was finished off with the Small Bow Dies (die cut and embossed from black cardstock) with a green button added to the center.

I hope all of you have a wonderful week and thanks again for taking the time to visit us! Don’t forget, if you have a chance to create a project with your Artistic Outpost stamps, we would love for you to share it with us on Artistic Outpost Facebook page!
