The Random Redhead Challenge at Gingersnap Creations is to create a project using a faux technique. Since I had so much fun with masking tape last week, I decided to use it again to create a faux leather background.
I sponged ink onto green Tim Holtz DP and then die cut my leather label to form the background for my lonely little cat.
Our Challenge is again sponsored by Rogue Redhead Design … I used the cat from Just Sayin' and the sentiment from Relish Reading. For the circle backing my sentiment, I added a second layer of ink and embossing powder to create a darker leather finish.
Great technique and its a fab card, x
