This is my DT make for Left of Center Creative Challenges. I do like the dark side play as you most likely know :)
It is a great day for the newest Creative Challenge at Left of Center: Good Luck or Bad. As always at Left of Center you are welcome to follow the suggested theme or if that does not strike your fancy, you are most welcome to play towards the dark side. We would love to see what you make!
For my project I used an image by Rick St. Dennis from the Voodoo Digital stamp set at Smeared Ink, you can find it HERE
Please click each photo to see them bigger:)
The "canvas" is cardboard. So fun and easy to play with! It is about 8 inches by 8 inches.
The background started with some gesso then I added some texture paste through a stencil. It kinda went crazy and got gloppy. Is gloppy a word??? Dunno...anyways, it looked weird so I added some Dylusions spray inks and water once the paste was dry.
On top of that I added some crackle paste. Once set and dry I finished off with some Lindy's Stamp Gang spray. I love this spray, it is one of two colors I own, it sprays on purple and dries with the awesome blue sparkle. :)
I trimmed the awesome RSD image and mounted it on black cardstock. I layered it on top of the "window". The background of the "window" I had fun embossing! I did paper dry embossing and inked the embossing folder itself then ran it though to get the pattern and thennnn stay with me, clear embossed the diamonds/harlequin for more sparkle and shine.
I hope you have time to play and really look forward to seeing your wonderfully creative fun at Left of Center!
