Cool Backgrounds by Ellie Knol


Once more, we have the pleasure of sharing some work by Ellie Knol! Check out the details she's added to create the cool backgrounds on these! :-)



Background has been made with walnut spray inks from Imagine Crafts.
Add salt and leave to dry, to create those little bubbles of color.
Vintage Script stamped on background with black ink as well as white heat embossing.

The leaf has been stamped on seperate cardstock, cut out and colored with watercolor pencils, adhered to the background and highlighted with a white Molotow acrylic marker.

These are so awesome! The leaves on the first piece don't look like they were made separately. Awesome collaging. And the leaves on the tag look like skeleton leaves with your excellent embossing. Very inspiring :o))
