I've been playing along with PaperArtsy Infusions. Don't tell my Brushos, but I think I love these more! It's that added walnut stain that makes all the difference.
The stencil is from Imagination Crafts, and the sentiment is from a Tim Holtz set.
I'm playing along with Simon Says Wednesday Challenge, Anything Goes
Here's another similar one I made in the same session:
Love those Christmas trees Shirley!
ReplyDeleteI've got a few of the Infusions and they are a little grungier than the Brusho's.
I suppose it's a case of horses for courses. :)
Gorgeous cards! Jo x

I know I'm really late, but I just saw these spectacular cards and I am weak-kneed with love!! There is a new company on the Powder Scene? And you like them better? What?! I don't think I wanted to know this, but I have to admit the color you have achieved here is tremendous!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteLove the bled in colors.
ReplyDeletecame across this via pinterest - love this card
ReplyDeletesorry what colour infusion did you use here ?really lovely
DeleteDebbie, I sprinkled a few colours in: The Sage, A Bit Jaded, Black Knight, and I think some Emerald Isle and/or Lemoncello.
Deletethanks stunning colour i have brushos but may need to invest in infusions
Deleteooops infusions just fell into my shopping basket - thank you for all the help
DeleteEnjoy playing with them :)
DeleteShirley - Lovely card! Have you done a video showing how you got such sharp lines in the outline of the tree without getting bleed under the stencil, but the colors inside the tree are blended. - Ellen Barner
ReplyDeleteHaven't done a video, Ellen - maybe next time. It's all about type of card, how heavily you spritz with water, and how long you leave it to soak. I just used my ordinary cardstock for these two. The second card was left to soak a bit longer. I've also had good results with mixed media card.
