Eroded Metallics Backgrounds

Nellie over at the Stampotique Designers Challenge wants us to share a favorite background technique.  I've got lots of favorites, but this is a new one I recently tried - Eroded Metallics, originally shared by Tim Holtz, uses distress paints and water.  I also love to use old book pages and add some color to them for a background.  I've combined both techniques in these ATCs.




Thanks for taking a peek.  Cheers!

    Love how you have used the butterflies off the edge Julie and the colour palette is just beautiful :-) xxx

    A great duo of background techniques, Julie! Great art, as you have shared here, need great beginnings! Well done!
