Happy Friday! This is Julissa of Paper Gems by Jules on the blog today. This week we’re kicking off the biggest sale season for Unity Stamp Company starting with Brown Thursday. Today, I’m highlighting the new Guided by Grace stamp set. This beautifully detailed stamp is not just for Christmas. We can all used some graceful guidance right now. I also want to share an easy masking technique.
After coloring this image, I used the 3-in-1 Stencil to create rays behind the angel using Squeezed Lemonade and Mustard Seed Distress Ink.
Once done with coloring, I place the stamp over the image and spray the Distress Mica Stain in Harvest Moon over the image. Make sure to clean the stamp before putting it away.
The mica spray gives a golden metallic shine in spots with a distressed look, but not covering up the image.
Let’s do another one!
Once you’ve stamped the image and colored it, make sure to clean the stamp and dry it before laying it over the image to splatter ink over the background.
Using the stamp, or even the backing of the stamp, will create a mask without any effort.
