I've been playing with stampbord again!! I coloured the individual pieces with the brighter of the shades of distress inks; mowed lawn, mustard seed, rusty hinge, spiced marmalade, peacock feathers, salty ocean and festive berries. I stamped the PA and LP images in black stazon and did the scrapy thing!!
The mdf plaque was coated in gesso and then in snowflake fresco paint. The background was coloured with mowed lawn, salty ocean, barn door, rusty hinge and mustard seed distress paints and edged in black soot.
Unfortunately it's a bit of a dull day today so the colours aren't as bright as they are in real life.
Anything but a Card have challenged us to get messy, and I certainly did with this one!!

wonderful mix of colours...very striking.
Love those bright colours, Sam. Your walls must be covered in plaques by now lol.
Gorgeous, love the distress paint colours, (suppose I better save up for some!) and the images are fab.
this is very nice Sam...love the way the top one's colours match up with the back ground as if it's transparent.. great stamps and lovely bright happy colours!!!
Love this Sam. One of the things I like about Stambord is the ability to do the scrapy thing to highlight areas and/or create some texture and these images are perfect for it. I agree with Lin about the colours on the top one.
