Grungy Fern Tower
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: jkanack

 Welcome to today's TLC-tower fold. You'll find directions in the tutorial section.

I did a few different things with this fold. I didn't use a few elements of the tutorial, like the diamond shapes in the center and I didn't use layers of cs, simply edged the pieces with ink. I'm going to be sending this card away for a swap, using the technique of Saran Wrap printing. You can do this with dye inks and water or you can use pigment inks, no water necessary, shorter drying time. I used both ways. I wanted kind of a grungy, distressed look, using the SU forever fern stamps and dies. The back is also decorated with Saran Wrap printed papers and a few more sprigs of ferns.

This is a fun fold and so glad you offered this challenge. Gives another opportunity to make this. Saran wrap inking also sounds fun. This card has lots of visual interest, great for a technique swap.

Beautiful background panels. I especially like the tall narrow pieces. User this as a great opportunity to use up some DP, but I'm glad you didn't.

Love the grungy background. The tower fold is the perfect way to showcase this technique.
