Simon Says - Inspired by Wendy Vecchi

It has been TOO long since I had time to join in one of the Simon Says Stamp and Show challenges - but with the challenge being 'inspired by Wendy Vecchi' I just had to make time this week - and just creep in with a day to spare.

I took a square canvas, my Dylusion spray inks and some Wendy stamps & an Art Part.

I spent an age faffing about with the sprays on the canvas, blotting and re-spraying until I got the colours (more or less) how I wanted them - which is more fun than it sounds. I love these sprays.

Then I took the script stamp from the 'live and make art' set, inking it with coffee archival, and rolling it randomly over the sprayed canvas to get partial impressions.  I had prepared the art part flower for something else initially, but it didn't work out for that piece, so decided to use it here, overstamped with the matching stamp.  I stamped the same flower in black archival on the canvas twice and added the text on a piece of kraft card.
For a final touch, I lightly brushed (with my finger) the tips of the art part petals with Treasure Gold wax (Spanish Topaz which is a gorgeous goldy bronzey colour but I don't think it quite shows up, the light here is dreadful today!)

Thanks to Simon Says for another great challenge, and for one lucky randomly chosen entrant, a $50 prize voucher. If you're quick, you can still join in!
