Mixed Media Fun with Special Place

Hello friends, Lisa here, and I’m so happy you are here for another Sentiment Saturday!

I have an Assemble This! video to share featuring a brand new stamp set from Unity Stamp Company. Join me for how I combine mixed media techniques for the backgroud and tips for using Distress watercolor pencils. I’m getting inky and creating a floral card with a sweet vintage vibe.

Assemble This! Videos are more detailed as I talk you through how to create this card step-by-step. You’ll get all my tips and tricks to inspire your next card.

Watch here or on YouTube. I’d love it if you’d subscribe to my channel! You’ll be the first to know when a new tutorial goes up too.

Special Place

There is a lot of layering of inks, stamps, and Tim Holtz Distress products to get that amazing background. Check out the video to see the magic happen.

Distress Ink: pumice stone, antique linen, vintage photo, gathered twigs Distress Oxide: worn lipstick

These gorgeous magnolia flowers pop against that grungy background. I love the simple detail in the design that helps to make coloring easier. I stamped on watercolor paper and used Distress Watercolor Pencils to get this look.

Distress Watercolor Pencils: kitsch flamingo, candied apple; crushed olive, peeled paint, speckled egg
