Putting It Together

I started this project at home but completed it while on vacation many miles away. 

I started with a small wood panel.

I dry fit the stamp on the panel.

After I prepped the panel with the powder too, I used the Misti to stamp the panel with VersaMark. This let me double stamp to ensure a good impression.

I covered the panel with fine black embossing powder.

I noticed the embossing powder clung to spots on the wood that weren't stamped.

I used a soft brush ti remove powder from places that weren't stamped to clean up the image a little.

I used a heat tool to set the powder.

With the embossing done on the panel, I packed it with the rest of the stuff I took on vacation.

I set up in the  hotel to paint the panel. I to save space (and weight), I didn't bring everything with me on vacation. For Distress, I brought only the crayons and markers I currently have. I also have Scibble Sticks, Tombow aqua markers, and water colour pencils (which I used for painting on planes and in airports).

I mostly used the crayons and markers by scribbling them on to an acrylic block and wetting the pigment with a waterbrush. I kept track of the colours used on one of the hotel notepads. Handy.
