Altered Canvas and Stampbord


After seeing Pinkles altered canvas on her blog I thought I'd get mine out from the back of the cupboard and have a go
I used a sponge and distress ink pads - weathered wood, scattered straw, dusty concord and broken china to colour the canvas and left to dry then sprayed with gold glimmer mist. I used the same ink pads for the stampbord pieces but gave them more definition when dry I stamped with versamark and stamps from Katzelcraft, Paper Artsy and Elusive images then embossed with detail black embossing powder. thanks for looking
