where I re-visited the technique of triple embossing.
At the end of the post I showed 3 cards using the same Banksy image from Bee Crafty, This is to show you some of the details of how they were made.
The Brickwall layer was made using an embossing folder [Crafters Companion] Kraft card and Distress inks. Shade with a blending tool then, rub the whole piece, with the surface of the ink pad, more pressure adds more colour.
On to the fun bit, I made my own mask for the image and swipped the surface all over with distress stain.
A bit of texture next, with stencil and grunge paste.
More colouring with some diluted white acrylic. A footstep stamp, then a rub over with White Fire Treasure Gold. Adding one of my triple embossed word plates
For this one I used a Brick stencil with weathered Wood distress ink, on the background and some stamping.
I used my home made mask of the image on this third one. Sprinkled the card with Brusho Powder and lightly sprayed with water. When it dried out I removed the mask and was able to stamp the image in the in the space. Yes, some of the colour had spread, but I thought it looked okay to use. A little stamping to give the effect of a wall.
The background stamps used were all unmounted and I'm afraid I cannot for sure name the maker.
