Lettering week - Karen


Hi, 
A lovely little canvas today with Karen who used stamps and chipboard letters for her lettering week sample. 
Love our she distressed the letters and the canvas. Beautiful work. What do you think? Let us know in  a comment below ;)

Kaisercraft texture clear stamps: Alphabet



I first painted the canvas randomly with some PaperArtsy Fresco Ice Blue and Cheesecake Fresco Paints and left to dry.  Using my fingers I smeared Beach Hut around the edges, smudging it in towards the middle.  Next I stamped Kaisercraft Alphabet stamp randomly using Fresco Finish London Bus. Using the Tando Creative Hearts Mask I stippled two hearts with London Bus and added a few lines with an old credit card. I doubled up on my selected letters from the Tando Creative Alphabet sheet to make them stand out more.  These were painted with Beach Hut and edged with Treasure Gold in Silver. (don't forget to give this a good buff to really bring the shine out!)  I also added some silver around the frame and the hearts.  he letters in place I added some more words which were computer generated.
