Bloggers Challenge - Third Times a Charm

Happy Bloggers Challenge Friday!  This week I gave the Bloggers Challenge Players a sketch for inspiration. My Third Times a Charm doesn't refer to the sketch (although I did take creative liberties), but rather to the technique I was trying to incorporate.  Since I have Compendium of Curiosities Book by Tim Holtz, I thought I'd join in some challenges using the techniques in the book.  The first Challenge is Water Stamping, I tried a few different stamps/paper to get this technique to work.  I found the bolder the image the better the "water stamping" looked.  Water Stamping is like stamping with Bleach but without the bleach/mess and fumes!

After my Manilla Tag was covered with Distress Inks, I continued onto the Water Stamping Technique using the beautiful Daisy (Code:FBM_367) from  Fred B. Mullett.  My image is cut with a Spellbinders Oval Die, layered on a Black Panel, then added the Torn Frames Technique.  The Kiwi and Curry panels are embossed with Texture Fades Folders.
