DT Project 2 By Gillian .... Featuring Kaisercraft




Good morning everyone ... I'm back with my 2nd DT project using more elements from the Kaisercraft "Timeless" Paper Pad and Kaisercraft Clear Stamps (Duchess Collection). I created this Vintage Canvas Hanging by cutting a piece of mountboard to size, then covered it using a scrap piece of Claudine Hellmuths Sticky Back Canvas which was inked with Distress Inks (Old Paper & Walnut Stain) and frayed around the edges. I used various papers from the paper pad which were given a light coat of white acrylic paint, then torn and distressed further using Distress Inks (Vintage Photo & Walnut Stain). The digital image is from my own personal stash, the edges have been distressed further using the Tim Holtz Paper Distresser and inked in Walnut Stain. The stamped images were inked using Archival Ink (Coffee). I added a torn piece of lace to the bottom. The embellishments are from Tim Holtz's Ideaology Collection.

Thanks again for stopping by, Lesley will be showing your her DT projects next week.

This project is just wonderful. I love how you have knocked back the papers with the white acrylic paint, such a great grungy effect.
