Grunge Paper Rose...

I would like to say sorry that I unable to snap the photo while I was doing the rose, firstly I was too excited, secondly my hands are so dirty to touch on my camera...and thirdly I think I need to hire a camera man...hahaha

Anyway I will share with you how Tom Holtz made his and please click HERE to get the steps and you can make your own roses...

I do not have many flowers stamp and specially those with 6 petals...when I wanted to give up I saw that I have a clear stamp from Hero Arts...and hey...after counting it has 6 petals... :)

I stamp 3 images on the grunge paper the cut it out. It is easy to cut, just follow the lines.

After that I spray with Tattered Angels...as you know I have many colours of them...so I just spray and spray and spray...mixing with many blue, red and brown tone of colours.

And the picture shown are the after I have completed the "cocktail mixing"...

Here is the close up wet look of the flower. Tim Holtz used the perfect pearls and distress re-inker...but I found out that using Tattered Angels will save lots of hassles...easy that applied the distress ink with a sponge...just spray and spray...heheheh...

For the rest of the steps, I just follow his instruction and here it is...the rose...

I follow Tim Holtz to apply a layer of Rock Candy as the touch up and the rose will stay on glossy and shinning...

I really like the grunge paper...It so durable than normal paper...start to make your own now...
