Fathers Day/For Men Challenge




Hi Guys here is another challenge over at Time 4 Scrap Blog the theme for this challenge this week is to create something suitable for fathers day or a male, Sassy Studio Designs is one of the sponsors for this so please go on over to there blog for more details and come and play along it would be great to see what everyone creates.

Here is my SSD DT creation for this challenge




To create this I've coloured the image with Tim Holtz distress inks using a water brush and some alcohol pens, the buttons have been coloured using the alcohol pens to ensure they co ordinated with the colour theme of the card and for the background I've inked the card with Tim Holtz ink pads then added some ripped script tissue paper that I printed onto and applied randomly onto the background mat layer then using watered down pva glue and paint brush I painted the PVA glue over the top of the randomly placed tissue paper to keep them in place  and left this to dry, once dried this gave the background some texture, I then finally added more distress inks and mica powders and mounted onto the card.

For the topper I used a couple of spellbinder dies and again distress them using the Tim Holtz Ink Pads.



Hugs
