Welcome to the last spotlight day featuring the brand new MFT release. I hope you’ve enjoyed the inspiration! I love playing with different mediums to create fun backgrounds. On Monday, I shared a rainbow background using distress paint. Today, I’m sharing another card using a background I created with distress paint. I added a few colors to my glass mat with lots of water and smooshed my paper in it. I made a kind of marbling effect which was cool. I encourage you to play with your mediums and experiment. If you’re ever in a creative rut, just pull some colors of whatever medium and make some backgrounds until the spark hits you again.
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
- Add picked raspberry, spun sugar, and salvaged patina distress paint to a glass mat with lots of water. Smoosh Tim Holtz distress watercolor paper into the paint repeatedly until you achieve the desired effect. Let the panel completely dry.
- Using the Wish Big Today Die-namics, die cut into the painted background panel. Adhere to an A2 card base.
- Die cut Wish Big three more times from Summer Splash cardstock. Adhere all of the layers together in place.
- On top, add crystal glaze and sprinkle some chunky glitter onto the glaze before it dries. Set aside to dry completely.
- Die cut a donut from Time to Make the Donuts Die-namics. Add a bow of silver thread on top and adhere onto the card front.
- Inside the card, stamp a sentiment from A Dozen Reasons to Smile to tie the card together.
