New Year card with crazy dog by Tim Holtz

Happy New Year Everybody!!!

And if it's January 1, then it's a new challenge over at the Country View Challenges. I bet, you will love the theme: Anything goes.

So for our new challenge, I made a new year card with Tim Holtz stamps and dies.

Here is my tutorial. 

First I cut out a rectangle from a mixed media paper and then I painted turquoise with Spa Blue (DecoArt). The first layer was painted with a brush but the second one was added with a sponge with tapping movement.

I painted gold the cut-outs and here one layer was enough.

I inked all the edges (the gold and turquoise as well) with Ranger Archival Potting Soil.

I spattered with brown paint the surface of the turquoise card and after drying I put a layer of Ranger Distress Collage Medium (Matte).

I used Tim's Stamping Tool to stamp the crazy dog and hat and then coloured them with Ranger Distress markers.

I stamped the text and embossed with gold.

I put my card together and for this I used 4 different adhesives: Pritt Stift, Rayher paper glue, double sided tape adhesive and foam adhesive.

What I used:

Sizzix Bigz Die, Weathered Clock by Tim Holtz (657190)
