Seize The Birthday - Texture

 

Hellooo!  We've got a new challenge for you at Seize The Birthday - my choice of Texture.  

"the feel, appearance, or consistency of a surface or a substance"


You can add texture in a number of ways, using pastes, dry embossing, fabric etc. or you can give the appearance of texture using stamps or stencils.

I found this panel in my stash that had gold texture paste through a stencil, so I sponged colour onto the rest of the panel then water-stamped the word 'birthday' - you can just about make out what is literally a watermark.

The girl is from a set by new-to-me company L'Encre et L'Image and the sentiment and banner diecut are from Taylored Expressions.  So I'm entering this into Darnell's NBUS #19 challenge.


Pop on over to the Seize The Birthday blog to see how the rest of the design team and our surprise party guest Angie have interpreted Texture, and play along with us.  You can just play along with our Anything Goes theme if you prefer.

  3. You've done a great job of showcasing texture to inspire us for your brief at STB, Shirley! Love how you took the little bit of textured circles and built your entire design around it! Genius! Thank you so much for sharing with everyone at NBUS! I hope you and your family are all keeping well! Hugs, Darnell
