Now I should warn you that I am new to both distress inks and stencils. I'm still in the experimentation phase. This is my first time using distress inks to create a background and also with a stencil. For the background, I applied Spiced Marmalade, Wild Honey, Scattered Straw, Rusty Hinge, and Fired Brick. I added some water through the stencil but I wanted more of an effect, so I daubed Walnut Stain distress ink through the stencil. I splashed on some water droplets to see what that would look like. I know I need more practice with these techniques but actually I'm happy with how this turned out!
As for the precious image, I coloured Sugar and Spice Kitty with my Prismacolor pencils, fussy cut, and popped up with foam tape on a brown circle (Nellie's Multiframe Circles). The sentiment is Lawn Fawn Scripty Thanks and I die cut it twice to create a shadow.
