 | | This is for Karen's terrific challenge to 'paint your stamps'.
I tried painting the stamp with Brusho's....major fail so I quickly squirted on more water and then wiped the watery powder all over the card very gently with baby wipe. There was still a lot of colour on the baby wipe so I scrubbed it over another 4" square of cardstock (the turqoise card).
My Zig markers have not had an outing in about 8 years. Every single marker was still lovely and juicy after all that time - unlike my usless Timmy H markers that dried up just looking at them. I bought a bottle of Distress Refresh, but I haven't tried it yet, I digress....
I aligned the feather stamp in MISTI, then coloured the stamp with Zig marker, very lightly spritzed on some water, then stamped onto cardstock. I repeated the process several times - ahhh the magic of MISTI.
I stencilled on some watered down Dylusions white paint using a stippling brush (not a real stippling brush, its what I rename all my brushes that I forget to wash before they dry hard).
I doodled a border and added the sentiment - the blue card didn't look right, it was very stark so I gently rubbed my walnut stain foam blending tool over the entire 4" panel. To add a bit of contrast I randlomly coloured a few feather with a white Sharpie paint pen.
The green card was done by using several green Zig markers and a brown marker. Initially this was going to be for the CAS challenge, hence the glittery stickles, I got a bit carried away so needless to say this is not going in the CAS challenge LOL.
Thank you for looking. I hope you have a fun crafty week.

You made me laugh at your "stippling" brush. Ha, now I know what to call mine and I won't feel guilty about not catching it before it dried! LOVE all three masterpieces!!!
