Hello Everyone!
Today's WT371 "Get Inky with Re-inkers" Ways to Use It challenge asks us to use our re-inkers. I desided to create a mixed media canvas for a change because I also need to create a project for a Helmar/Buttons Galore post tomorrow (so you are getting a pre post peak).
I first tore pieces of old book and used a sponge and re-inker to distress around each piece. Then they were decoupaged to the 8"x8" canvas. I then used assorted colors of re-inkers to drip down the "sky" and grass. I then added, the stamped and colored image, sentiment, and embellishments, before giving the entire piece another coat of decoupage to seal it all in.
Thanks for the fun challenge cathymac!
I would love to hear what you all think about my canvas!
Hugs,
True

Great mm project! Love the inked, torn paper background and images. It has been "forever" since I did a mixed media piece. Makes me wanna. I'm a button lover and I'm lovin all those buttons, too! I'll have to check out that challenge--if I can find it.
