Video: Rockin' the Vintage Look


Today I show how to use the rock n' roll technique with the script from my Stately Flowers 9 set along with some simple sponging to create a beautiful vintage patina on your mats.  I also show how to color the peony from the same stamp set with Spectrum Noir markers.  Please enjoy! 

 


Supplies:
Gina K. Designs Stately Flowers 9 stamp set
Gina K. Pure Luxury White (3 1/8" x 3 3/4"), Wild Lilac (scrap for die cut), Wild Orchid (3 1/4" x 4"), and Lovely Lavender cardstock (A2 sized)

Spectrum Noir markers: GG2 (shadow), CG2, CG4 (leaves), LV1, HB1, PL3 (petals), LY3, DR6 (center)
butterfly die (from Gina K. Birthday Essentials StampTV kit) and die cutting machine
adhesive, adhesive pearls and adhesive foam, sponge dauber


See more of my Stately Flowers sets here. They all play nicely together and would look fabulous with these techniques!
