DISTRESS OXIDES GLOSS

The love for Distress Oxides hasn't gone away, I just keep finding new ways of using these gorgeous ink pads and the depth of colour is just amazing!  Almost all of these cards below have been created using only two colours of Oxides, a couple with three colours  But you still have to be aware if you're working with colours while they are all still wet, that the old rules still apply and if you mix red and yellow you will get orange, blue and red will give you purple.  So try and keep your colours slightly separated unless you are drying in between, then you can layer to your heart is content!

"Still talking"...
(Wild Honey & Black Soot)

"Ruin my life"...
(Broken China & Spiced Marmalade)

"Live in colour"...
(Candied Apple, Blueprint Sketch
& Squeezed Lemonade)

"Dead leaves"...
(Aged Mahogany & Hickory Smoke)

"Subscription"...
(Wild Honey, Fossilized Amber
& Broken China) 
yep, blue & yellow make green!


Finally, this is the last atc from last week's class, "Crayon Melt Background" using the crayons and a heat gun to melt the crayon to get it to run.  Love this technique!!!

"BS"
(white, brown & copper crayons)
