It's all about Texture

Well there's a great challenge just started over at Rhedd & Rosies...the theme is "All about Texture" there must be some form of texture on your entry.
For my design team piece I used some cardboard, measuring 5"x 5" which I then stripped a section back to the corrugation underneath.
I gessoed the whole piece, then using 2 stencils added some texture using grunge paste. Once dry I added another coat of gesso




Once the whole piece was thoroughly dry I then sprayed with Artiste Gold Stone Ink Spray...I just love this colour and it brings the texture up beautifully.
To finish I added a lovely vintage image, which matched perfectly colour wise and then the splash of colour with the flowers and hanging ribbon.
Do pop along and have a look at the challenge, Teamie Zoe is sponsoring this challenge and is offering this fabulous stamp for our winner.

I love the texture of the corrugated card background. I've never used grunge paste but I love the effect - I think I'll put this on my 'to try' list. The gold stone finish is just perfect :)
