The vivid colors of the background were done with Ranger color wash sprays on watercolor paper. I'd never used this product before, but admired it in the work of others. I found a place online that had them for a good price and bought a bunch. Love them!
I also glued a few little tufts of dryer sheets sprayed with mica spray in random spots for a little shimmer. The black flourishes were die cut, and just about all the other elements are Wendy Vecchi stamps on grungeboard colored with distress inks.
The phrase about flying I also took from a Wendy stamp, but I wanted it much larger so used the computer for that, with one of my favorite fonts, "bleeding cowboy."
I like it very vibrant colors

ReplyDeleteI've been eyeing those color washes--so glad to see how they look on an art piece. This is another fab project, Eileen!
ReplyDeleteDo you use those dyes directly from the bottle, Eileen? I have them, and find them very saturated. Not sure but thinking of diluting them.
ReplyDeleteI just love your backgrounds, so cool. Love the colors, aren't those colorwashes fab? I also love how you used Wendy's stamps. They're not just for flowers, you know. lol And now I have to go get that font, way cool.
