I hope you’re all enjoying the new
SplodgeAway Blog and are taking inspiration away with you, this week I’m using
the Coggish Frame SplodgeAway Mask and this is how I made it.
Taking a piece of 7 ½ x 7 ½ die cuts with a view card stock, lay
down the mask, take a natural sponge and dab your chosen colour ink through the
mask, on this occasion I chose big and juicy birthday. Distress the edges with
the same colour ink, that’s your background complete.
The centre piece
Cut a piece of 4 x4 patterned paper. I’ve
used Making Memories, distress the edges using Big and Juicy ink and
SplodgeAway Blending Mat.
Using a paper piercer, pierce the centre to
give you room to get the tip of your scissors through, cut diagonally into the
corners make sure to stop about 2 cms
from edges, tear some of the centre paper and roll towards the edges to make a
centre frame.
Ink up your chosen image, I’ve used Crafty Individuals CI 202, stamp onto
coloured card or distressed/ brayer background, place this directly on your
background, then mount your frame with 3D foam over the top.
To finish add twine and a metal making
memories washer, then chose 2 coordinating colours of bias binding and make a
creased bow, add 2 decorative pins and a button to finish, I always add a drop
of glossy accents to the points of the pins to avoid any nasty accidents.
Mount it on an 8 x8 scalloped card from
Suzicraft.
Lo and behold not a drop of stickles in
sight!
Enjoy your creativity
