First I wanted a variety of texture around the edges, so starting with Vivia Ferro texture apply it with a spatula to the edges. Next stamp into it with a variety of damp stamps. Making the stamp damp with a babywipe helps the release out of the paste and helps with clean up! You need deeply etched rubber to do this. I mainly used SM08 (flourish), MN23 (numbers) and a couple of others, but in general I try to get a balance of round with linear designs for a nice contrast. Tip: if the stamp lifts off and you get sucky "lift off" texture, then reduce the thickness of the ferro. If the impression is too shallow, then add more ferro texture. "simples"! lol

Hope you enjoyed this idea. The kaisercraft acrylic paints are cheap, and the tubes are like a toothpaste tube, so it's easy to dispense. Tubes are extremely good value at £2.50ea for 75ml, and the colours are trendy!

Wow, love what you've done. Thank's for sharing. I need another 24 hours in a day to do all that I would like. Don't know why I torture myself so much by looking at what everyone else is doing, Lol.
