The "Dream" pennant is mostly dark browns with a few aqua touches:
"Wander" is all about purple:
"Believe" is black and white and silver:
"Inspire" is a favorite combo, pink and green:
And last, "Enjoy" is another all in green:
To summarize the techniques used on these and the previously posted five:
- all backgrounds are sheet music paper, swiped with color, stamped with various stamps, covered with versamark and clear embossing powder, then heat embossed. A distress tool scratched the surface in a few spots, and darker ink was rubbed into the scratches.
- all the letters are grungeboard, inked then sprayed with a mixture of water, rusty hinge distress reinker, and sunflower sparkle perfect pearls. Some of the letters (depending on the color palette of the pennant) were re-inked afterwards.
- all of the pennants have some embossed metal in the center. Some were double embossed, sanded, and more color added with stazon inks.
- all of the grungeboard and chipboard embellishments were given the drunken scotch treatment.
Bet you're glad to have these done! The "Dream" is my favorite as I am partial to the brown palette. Super job, Eileen!!
