A Tree-mendous Time of Year Part 2

It's the midway point in the current Scribbles Designs challenge. For my card this time I have had a play with my new Distress Oxides combining digital stamps and acrylic stamps in one image.



Materials used:  
Scribbles Designs - Fall Tree
acrylic leaf stamp
little bird acrylic stamp
various Distress Oxide ink pads in Autumn colours
Mememto Tuxedo Black ink pad
designer paper from stash
Copic pens
blending cardstock (not X-Press It)
DL card blank
designer card from stash

The Fall Tree image is printed on card and coloured with Copic pens. The leaves are stamped on it using various Distress Oxide inks. I used a damp paint brush to add some colour to the leaves, spreading it from the stamped images while still wet. Finally the little robin is stamped with black ink and coloured with Copics.

The front of the card blank has been covered in designer card from my stash, I think it may be Papermania but not certain.

I have not had much of a play with the distress oxide ink pads yet so this was a first experiment at using them to stamp. The colours are much more vibrant and do not muddy so much as the traditional Distress inks.

There are still two more weeks to go for this challenge at Scribbles Designs. All we need to see is at least one tree on your makes and although most peoples thoughts are turning to Christmas trees at this time of the year both my samples show that you do not have to stick to Christmas, any tree will do!! If you need a Scribbles Design digi stamp then Sandy  has provided a freebie you can use, check out the link above. There are also plenty of images in the Scribbles Designs store as well.

Thanks for dropping in. Take care.
