when you spray the tags with water, the scorched timber underneath
the metallic ink starts to come to the surface, this is part of the magic.
the larger raised areas can be wiped with a damp paper towel,
the smaller details I wipe with a damp cotton swab.
add distress oxide ink, spray, dry, wipe and repeat
your tags are amazing, love following through the tutoria. That is a must do for me....Can hardly wait until your Halloween series. I always look forward to it each year.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful... Am I correct that you're showing four color schemes (one metallic mixative and two oxides on each) or do you apply all four mixatives and eight colors to a single tag in layers?
