Dreams of faraway places and daring adventures

For the background I used Distress Ink Speckled Egg an d Antique Linen. I stamped two images on it with embossing ink and used Distress embossing glaze Speckled Egg to emboss it.

The globe was colored by blending Faded Jeans and Forest Moss. Spraye dsome water on it to make it wick. The little globe I colored with the same colors.

For the flowers I used a spritzer and Distress Markers. I spritzed the coloers on the flowers and sprayed them with water. This made the colors wick and blend together.

For the suitcases I used a technique Tim Holtz showed in a facebook live. First you crumble the paper, then you smooth it out a bit. Next you swipe a Distress Ink Pad over the paper and soak ik with water to make the ink react. The last step is putting a hot iron on the wet paper. Keep ironing the paper till it’s dry. It creates some great effects. I used the colors Hickory Smoke, Pumice Stone and Iced Spruce.
