Here's my tag for week 18's Compendium of Curiosities 2 Challenge - sponsored this week by the Funkie Junkie Boutique - where you'll find the technique on page 47 of Tim's book called whitewash stamping. I have to confess that when I read the technique, I thought it would never work for me, because I don't seem to have the greatest results with Picket Fence stain, but I've stuck with all the challenges so far and got out a kraft tag and it worked! It's a fun effect for your background and here's my close-up view:
So if it worked with a kraft tag, I had to try it on a regular manila tag ;-) Much brighter colors, don't you think?
Both your tags are beautiful!!! I couldn't decide which one I liked best! :)

ReplyDeleteI don't have much success with picket fence either!!!
What you have done with these Tags is beautiful, I like both; the subtleness of the Kraft and the luminosity of the manila. They are very pleasing to the eye.
