Good morning!! Today in our Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge: Studio 490 we are showcasing product and techniques of Wendy Vecchi!!! I am in such awe of her work and style...I choose to be inspired by her technique of colouring dried molding paste with Tim Holtz Distress markers...you can see it HERE. I changed it up a bit and used Faber-Castell markers.
This is my finished board. Below, I have a mini tutorial on the process.
The background paper was handmade using Dylusions inks, Resolve, and watercolour paper.....you can see the technique tutorial post HERE.
I adhered it to a board and added a few stencils with pan pastels for added depth and colour.
Here I have added Golden molding paste through TCW stencils and started to colour the dried areas with my Faber-Castell Big Brush Pens...very easy to do!
To finish it up I added these awesome Blossom Bucket hearts from Wendy Vecchi's Studio 490 line....LOVE these to bits!!!, a sentiment from a Dylusions stamp set, a little glitter to the petals and leaves, and white paint splatters to the background.
Thanks Wendy for the wonderful inspiration!!!

Lovely project Trace, your background is gorgeous, so much depth and so many layers of interest. Love the texture achieved from the texture paste, I love this technique, one I have used for many years and its always so effective. Love the pop of colour on the flowers and the hearts are a lovely addition. Tracy x x
