My 2nd entry for the Dirty Dozen Challenge, That's Rough. This one is also my favorite. Living in Tucson, I have a love for our Saguaro Cactus/Cacti, our amazing mountains, and breathtaking sunrises/sunsets. We also have some of the best cycling here with our beloved Mt. Lemmon being ranked #3 on The 30 Hardest Climbs in the World.
Anyhow, we were tasked with adding texture to our cards. Some ideas given were- to use sand, sandpaper, grit medium, glitter, distress embossing powder, or to use sandpaper to distress our panel. For my my texture portion I added a Wink of Stella to the white portions that the Saguaro's are in. Then I used a fine tip glue pen to trace the stencil portions and add the brown glitter. The picture doesn't show the shimmer on the bike, but I used Pearl Ex Interference Blue on Marina Mist. It turned out to be just like my co-ride leaders paint job on her bike. I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome! I love how playing with long lost supplies turns into a perfect find.
This was for my dear friend and co-ride leader, Linden. We had a birthday celebration for her after our Tuesday ride.
The birthday girl.
We love to match on our rides.
Thank you for taking a peek at my blog!!!
