Anything Tim


Zoe steered me to this challenge, which has been set by The Stamp Man.  The theme is Anything Tim.  As I received some goodies in the post yesterday I had a play with them last night.  The background is a canvas which I prepared with Acrylic Paint Dabbers, espresso, hazelnut, sandal and lemonade.  I cut the car and the dream from white card.  I coloured them with vintage photo, forest moss, walnut stain and antique linen distress stains.  I blended the colours with distress inks of the same colour range.  I blocked out pieces on the canvas where the windows and word would appear with lemonade dabber.  I used glossy accents to go round the edges of the word dream and the bumpers on the car.  I framed the canvas with pitch black paint dabber and the dream piece with black soot distress ink.  So all things Tim apart from the canvas!!!!
