Distress Oxide Spray

Hello there. The Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge has started a new ‘anything goes Christmas‘ challenge. Here is my card:

For the background panel I used a piece of Distress Kraft and sprayed with Distress Oxides, splattering a little but liking how the brown Kraft came through in some places.

Whilst that panel was drying, I die cut the snowflakes using Heffy Doodle dies and Concord & 9th glitter card stock, and used the same glitter card stock to die cut the Pinkfresh Studio frame.

I adhered the snowflakes towards the top of the purple panel, die cutting more smaller ones to fill the gaps, and then adhered the frame on top.

I added the foiled sentiment and decided not to add any more bling as the card is very glittery in real life.

I hope you can come and join us – I look forward to seeing you in our gallery. xx

I shall be entering the following challenges:

Krafty Chicks – occasions

Creative Fingers – anything goes

Ally’s Angels – anything goes

Sparkles Forum Christmas – Christmas and non-traditional colours

Hi there. I have a CAS card to share today using a background made with Distress Oxides Sprays, and Lumi Spray from Craftbox UK:

I made a few backgrounds at the weekend using the Tim Holtz Distress Sprays. I have had these for a while and not really played with them, but I like more muted look to them as compared to blending the Distress Oxide inks.

I also sprayed some Lumi Spray in green on top – the green became more muted – but the shine remained.

I cut a square out of the yellow toned piece of card, then stamped the chicken image, placing the square below the opening in the Reverse Confetti cover panel die.

I think a very CAS card, but quite effective with the yellow and shiny tone.

I shall be entering the following challenges:

Happy Little Stampers – CAS feathers

QKR Stampede – anything goes

All Fun Challenges – anything goes (optional colour scheme not taken)

AAA Cards – CAS one image, Optional inspired by TV not taken)
