Hello and hope you're staying well! Just want to share my latest postcard made with Lindy's Gang goodies, a couple of stamps, and a stencil.
I started by stamping the (Around the World) Stamperia Stamp onto the top right corner with (Jet Black) Archival Ink.
The next step was adding Prima Black Gesso to the (Steampunk Man) Stamperia Stencil. Then I smooshed and painted it all in several layers, starting with Lindy's Gang Sprays (Cafe Au Lait and Golden Doubloons), Magical Shakers (Antique Gold, Antique Bronze, and Bratwurst Brown), and Squirts (Beaver Tail Brown and Poutine Gold). Once it all dried, I reapplied the stencil and used my finger to apply Finnabair Metallique Wax (Vintage Gold) over the black gesso, and (Bronze Age) to the edges.
The curtain rod was embossed with Lindy's Gang (King Midas Gold) Embossing Powder onto black cardstock, with the main image representing the curtains with all of the folds of her dress, fussy-cut from a magazine. To create a spotlight, I painted the center with (Poutine Gold) Squirts, and embossed over it with LG (Clearly Clear) Embossing Powder.
I printed out the quote for the April Mini Challenge at More Than Words to use the word "All", and finished the edges with Finnabair Metallique (Vintage Gold) Wax.
