AAB (About A Boy) having fun for their Sept 1 Challenge and crossover with AAG (About A Girl) the challenge is to create a page with black white + one color. And here is my attempt, combined with Let's Get Sketchy September Week 2 Challenge.
Sketch by Ashley Horton
I am still behind using enamel dots so
I used brads instead (need to use up my stash).
And since I have no small white brad, I made my
own using ink and embossing powder.
use a piece of cardstock to hold the brads
ink them
embossing powder
heating tool
Voila! Paints and nail polish
will be great too (I think). I will try
and will let you the result.
Supplies :
- cardstock - Authentique
- patterned paper - Fancy Pants, Studio Calico and American Crafts
- brads, twines - American Crafts
- spray ink - Tattered Angels
- chipboard - Heidi Swapp
- alphas - Basic Grey

- embossing powder - Recollection
