We're still having fun with the #birgitkoopsengelprintingchallenge.
The Stamp Challenge made me smile ... but the challenge to me was which stamp to use. I decided on a vintage Three Ferns stamp from Hero Arts with two colors of Distress Oxide Ink.
Next up was Packaging Materials. I sorted through things I had kept in my stash for future packing, and found this sheet of differently shaped bubble wrap that I tried.
You can barely see it on the second print on the left, but I loved that effect too.
Next was buttons. I tried inserting the buttons in a rolled-out piece hand-exercise clay thinking I could stamp with that, but the buttons refused to stay embedded (I got it sort of done in the red print). After that I used the individual buttons to stamp into the pink paint covered plate (and basically got my hands completely covered with both colors).
I was able to wash all of the paint off my buttons, so they can be used again.
Next Up was Feathers. I decided to use my favorite Feather Stamp from Tyggereye (Gina).
I liked how they stamped off with the Acrylic Paint better than the prints itself, which was a reminder that I could cover the plate in medium and use it like a giant stamp pad (love thinking about different ways to use products I already have). Still one of my favorite stamps.
Next up is using a Brush. I used Dina Wakley's Media brush to apply the paint by swiping horizontally on the plate.
Love how the paint blended and the brush strokes (particularly in the second print). The vibrant colors make me smile.
