2 sheets white A3 card
Red wonder tape sheets x2
Step 1.
Draw around wooden file, once onto each sheet of card. Cut around, leaving a small border on curved and shortest edges. Also trace and cut out fron and back panels.
Step 2.
Use blending tool to apply Bundled Sage, then Tumbled Glass distress inks. Blend well, build up colour by adding layers, rather than trying to use too much ink at once.
Step 3.
Place Flower Frenzy stencil where you want it, ensuring some of it is 'off the page'. Using the bleding tool with Antique Linen ink, use a twisting motion to apply ink over stencil.
Move stencil to a smaller area and repeat.
Repeat again using the swirly stencil and Pumice Stone Ink.
Step 4.
Spay lightly with glimmer mist, so that there are a few 'splats'.
Step 5.
Tear a sheet of scrap paper in half and lay onto card in V shape. Ink the En Francais stamp with Vintage Photo and stamp over the V shape.
Step 6.
Randomly stamp the other images, some in Vintage Photo, some in Pumice Stone.
Step 7.
Dry off the page with the heat gun, then sweep over with embossing buddy.
Stamp the dragonfly images in versamark ink and heat emboss with copper embossing powder.
Step 8.
Repeat on all panels, then adhere to file using sheets of wonder tape, cut to size.
Step 9.
1 at a time, ink each edge lightly with versamark, sprinkle with copper embossing powder and heat emboss.
That's it, you're done. Hope you enjoyed!
