Creating Texture with Mixed Media by Jodi Baune

My Creative Scrapbook Design Team member Jodi Baune is here today to share some mixed media texture techniques that she used on her work with our January Main Kit.

Here's Jodi...

 

I want to share with you how I added a bit of life and texture to my fence. First I cut the Victorian Picket Fence from Cheery Lynn Designs (any chipboard fence would work too).

 

I added a bit of color by using pouncers and Ranger Distress Inks in Vintage Photo and Pumice Stone.

 

Next, I added a touch of Ranger Distress Paint in Picket Fence color. The distress inks blend into the paint for a softer look.

  

After the paint dried, I followed up with a touch of Ranger Distress Paint in Clear Rock Candy for more distressing and texture. Here is a close up of the result.

Dies used: Victorian Picket Fence, Darling Daisies, Build a Flower #1, Build a Flower #2, Build a Flower Embellishment #2, Olive Branches, Stacker Flower #1 Leaf, Mini Dimensional Butterflies, Exotic Mini Butterfly, Lace Light Deco Border
