Hi Everyone
This weeks challenge is Faded Layers from A Compendium of Curiosities, Vol. 2, Page 43 brought to us by Linda Louise Ledbetter of Studio L3.
I had to think about this one for a few days. The colour scheme and what I was going to layer. Eventually I decided on this.
3rd layer includes a scroll in the right bottom corner.
4th layer I stamped the mannequin in black stazon. The nice thing about this technique for me was the fact that I didn't have to get the overstamping exact. It all adds to the effect if it is a little off centre!
I can't tell you the technique but I can share what I made.
I stamped out onto a masking sheet the Tim Holtz mannequin from the sewing stamp and cut it out. I then placed it onto the tag and left it there until the final layer.
2nd layer includes a compass in the left and right upper corners.
3rd layer includes a scroll in the right bottom corner.
4th layer I stamped the mannequin in black stazon. The nice thing about this technique for me was the fact that I didn't have to get the overstamping exact. It all adds to the effect if it is a little off centre!
Take care....speak soon..... Sue

ReplyDeleteI don't have CoC2, but the challenges at Studio L3 seem to be well worth playing in. As for this 'ere entry - wow - the offset colouring is sooo evocative of the '50s - you've captured it perfectly :)
