#CC3C - Painted Industrial

It's time for another Compendium of Curiosities 3 challenge! Check out the lovely Linda Ledbetter's blog for all the details and to see what the Curiosity Crew created. Inspiration Emporium is sponsoring Challenge #7 with a $50 gift certificate!

The painted industrial technique is on page 46 of Tim's book. For this technique and the focal point of my project I used one of my newest dies, the Layered Dragonfly. Next I decided to die cut and emboss a second dragonfly from modeling film. I colored this one with a variety of archival ink and heated it. To finish the look I adhered it to the top of my foil dragonfly and I gotta say I love the effect. Thanks for stopping by!

#CC3C - Distress Watercoloring

On to Challenge #5, see Linda Ledbetter's blog for all the details. Inspiration Emporium is sponsoring this challenge with a $50 Gift Certificate!

I started by turning to page 39 of Tim's book, A Compendium of Curiosities Volume 3. Next I pulled out some Mini Blueprint stamps and used Tim's technique to color several images. For the card below I used the largest of the Sized Rectangles Dies to create the card base from Kraft Cardstock. I used the largest and smallest die to create the frame from recycled cardboard. Pulled it all together and there your have it, my finished card is 2 3/4 x 3 3/4 inches. Thanks for stopping by!
