Thom<\/a> used Distress Ink Chipped Sapphire<\/a> and Distress Paint Prize Ribbon<\/a> for the background, and then used stencils with Squeezed Lemonade<\/a> and Picket Fence<\/a> Distress Paint.

Barbara<\/a> created a decorative panel using Stampers Anonymous Etcetera Mosaic Tiles<\/a>. She painted the project with Ranger Ink Distress Paint <\/a>and Distress Spritz<\/a>.

Cheiron<\/a> “painted” with Alcohol Inks on Distress Black Heavystock<\/a>. She used Snow Cap Mixative <\/a>to get really vibrant colors to show on her panel, then splattered it with Gilded<\/a> Distress Foundry Wax, and Picket Fence Distress Paint. She finished her card with a sentiment from the Just Thoughts<\/a> stamp set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maura<\/a> headed to her art journal, inspired by all the lovely blooms at this time of the season. She used Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Abstract Florals stamps<\/a>, Simon Says Stamp’s Whirl Dragonfly wafer<\/a> die, and of course, paint, like Dina Wakley’s Lemon<\/a> and Lime<\/a> acrylic paints. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
