Hello, it's Julie from Juliz Design Post here with you today. Lovely to have you visit on my part of this journey.
Travelling this month in our travel trunk is the crafty
must haves-
1. Product - Any 'Classics' Stamp set.
2. Technique - Shabby Chic - CC Vol 1, Page 49
3. Colour
- Antique Linen
4. Substrate - Tag
Using all of the above elements this is what I came up
with....
I started by adding a coat of Black Gesso onto a Black
Tag to give it a Prime. Once dry I used Classics #3 stamping with Versamark ink
and heat setting with Clear Embossing powder. Next I painted over the entire
surface with Antique Linen Distress Paint. Misting a paper towel with water I
rubbed over my damp paint to reveal a Shabby Look. Finally mounting onto a
Manilla Tag with the edges distressed.
Using a Manilla tag I stamped Classics #6 in Black
Archival Ink and heat embossed with Clear ink, fussy cutting around the edges.
I stamped little splatters on using Antique Linen Distress Paint and distressed the edges with Antique Linen
and a little Black Soot. Adding some stitching, staples and chit chat stickers
for detail.
My clock was made using the Sizzix Movers and Shapers
die. I pressed Versamark ink onto the outer frame of the watch and added a mix
of Silver Embossing Powder with Verdigris and Vintage Photo Distress Powder.
Once heat embossed I rubbed a little Black Soot Distress paint on and off. The clock
face was stamped with a cog stamp onto Black card and heat embossed with
Silver. Adding my Idealogy I then filled with a generous layer of Glossy
Accents.
My Time Travelling Gent was stamped in Archival and
shaded with Distress Pens, fussy cut and his key charms added to his hand for
detail.

Hope you have enjoyed my post today and feel inspired to
incorporate one of these techniques into your project for our current challenge
- Destinations. All the details are on the sidebar.
Happy Crafting,
