The Technique Lovers challenge over at Splitcoast was to try Acrylic Resist.
I embossed the Tall Pines by Tim Holtz onto a white panel. Then I brushed over the panel with Weathered Wood Distress Paint and let it dry. Next, I sanded over the raised trees to remove the paint and then sponged over the trees with Ranger Distress Frayed Burlap. The paint resists the ink where it hasn't been sanded. I stamped the sentiment in the corner and added blue Tiny Twinkles to the trees.
I'm also joining in on the Merry Monday Challenge
