Atc Swap - Resist

For my resist technique this time I used a candle and rubbed it over a piece of baking paper, scrunched it up, uncrumpled it, laid the atc over the baking paper wax side up, and ironed. Wasn't sure if anything would happen, but some of the wax transferred onto the card. I used ripe permission and mustard seed distress inks to colour the atc.

Then I stamped a new to me image which I picked up a couple of weeks ago, in black stazon and added a few washi tape images.

For technique #2, I gesso'd a wooden heart and added a thick layer of media clear crackle.

Once totally dry, covered with white antiquing cream which fell into the cracks and wiped the rest away.

I covered a piece of white card with black gesso, stamped a script image with versamark, added clear embossing powder and heated to create the resist.

Next I painted over it with DecoArt everlasting chalky finish paint and wiped away the access to reveal the embossed script.

Added a piece of washi tape along the bottom.

Then I attached the heart to the background.

I tried to capture this to show that the script is embossed and not just stamped on the background.

And a close up of the heart.

All products for this atc were from the DecoArt range.
