The background is distress stains. The stamps were inked with StazOn so the color wouldn't run. I painted the images using gelatos, stains & glimmer mist. I love using glimmer mist as a paint. It makes the image all shimmery. The stamps are mainly Dylusions & Oxford Impressions. A neat painting technique I learned from Dyan Reavely (used in the leaves) is to paint with the distress stains in a color -peeled paint & while the stain is still wet add a spot of a different color -forrest moss. The 2 colors blend a little making it look like a highlight.
A great place to learn about mix media, scrap booking & all things inky. Filled with tutorials to inspire you!
