Autumn Glory Day 4


SplodgeAway Mask, Distress Stains and Dylusions Stamps.

By Eileen Godwin
The three Bookmarks shown here were so easy to make and great fun as well.

I used lo tac tape to secure the Square Edged Lattice Mask, that is available to buy from http://www.splodgeaway.com/shop.html some watercolour paper and splodged all over with various colours of Distress Stains through the Mask … fabulous effect!

 After removing the Mask and drying my work with a heat gun, I 'sliced' the very colourful result into three bookmark shapes. 

Then I stamped over the top of them using a few Dylusions leaf images with Archival Black Ink and painted them with the Distress Stains.

My SplodgeAway Mat made a handy and convenient paint palette.


Finally, I stamped more of the leaves onto spare white card, cut a few out and stuck them on top of some of the coloured leaves, using foam pads, to add 'interest' and a bit of dimension!


I layered all three bookmarks onto more white card, added some Bakers Twine plus a Quickutz die-cut for the top of the tag.... job done ! 

So... there we are … my take on our theme today “ Autumn Glory ”

Thanks for popping by and having a look .
