From Jen's Tute

This has been one of my favorite tutes for layering. I began the process with white card stock covered with torn paper. It was so fun choosing what papers I wanted to combine.



Next step, I added white and cream colored lace and covered the whole thing with gel medium and let dry.

After it dries completely, I then add watercolor crayons in groves and on top of lace, well...everywhere and then pressed colored areas with fingers to smooth and smudge. I also dabbed on glitter glue. Then sprayed with a fixative.

After dry, add layer of acrylic white paint mixed with a little water and let dry.

I painted on another layer of white acrylic paint mixed with water. First layer was not enough for me, and let dry.

This is one of the ATC backgrounds I cut from paper.

Below is one of two cards made by using backgrounds above . This was a trade theme in my wonderful and fun group ATCforbeginners, located here
