Here we are to a brand new challange over Simon Says Stamp!

 

This week’s theme over Simon Says Stamp Monday Challange is “Try To Resist!” and we are featuring the Ranger Brand!
I always love to try new techniques and when it comes to a brand like Ranger, everything is possible due their wide range of products! I wanted to try my recent buy Ranger Inkessential Triangular Collage and play with some mini distress ink…
Also this month we are having  a new Guest Designer in our Spotlight – and I am really happy that she is going to play with us because she is one artist I truly admire and respect, the Tag Queen herself: Beulah Bee

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”1952″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″ onclick=”zoom”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]I cut this ATC with a Sizzix Die and I used a Ranger Manila Cardstock as base. I grabbed a couple of mini distress ink and I started adding colors to the background. I love using mini distress ink with ATC because they are small and helps you a lot when it comes to small projects like ATCs. After I did one layer I fastened the dry time with the Ranger Heating Tool, then I grabbed my Ranger Ink Essential Triangular Collage Glue and applied a bit of glue — then with my finger I slightly smudged the glue. I let it dry completely.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”1951″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″ onclick=”zoom”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]When the glue was dry (this in essential…otherwise you will make a mess!) I grabbed another mini distress ink and with the blending tool I applied more color over the backgroud. The glue act as resist and makes amazing backgrounds! I let it dry then with a baby wipe I gently removed some color from the background.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”1953″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″ onclick=”zoom”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Then I simply decorated my ATC with a bunch of Tim Holtz Ephemera , I wanted to go with the “journey” theme, so I tried to use everything based on this theme. I also added a bit of texture with Ranger Texture Paste that I used through a stencil. Of course I had to add stitches otherwise…I couldn’t call it done! LOL.

I love the background result! What do you think?[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”1951,1952,1953,1954″ img_size=”large”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

  1. A truly beautiful ATC which is packed full of wonderful colour, texture and so many gorgeous elements ~ I love it, Zoey! Hugs… xx

  2. Beautiful ATC, Zoey! The colors are fabulous and the color of the ribbon is gorgeous. I love how you add some sewing elements to each project. I got my machine fixed but still can’t get my sewing to look as amazing as yours. I’ll keep practicing though. Thanks for the inspiration! Cathie <3

  3. What a gorgeous ATC, Zoey! Love the vintage look of the photo with the bright colors! It goes so well together! Hugs, Sandra

  4. Awesome ATC! Love the colors and the orange is a great contrast to your oh so gorgeous ribbon! Ok, I can see I have to try the glue resist now, Zoey.

  5. Fabulous ATC Zoey, the gentleman is very handsome don’t ya think 😉 the background and all of the details are perfect! I have never tried to use glue as a resist so I will be trying this technique out! 🙂
