I just got oxide sprays. At Christmas. I still haven’t used them but I love them so much. I also haven’t even opened my gesso yet. We’ve struggled financially for about 4 years so I’ve slowly scraped up the money for supplies I really want, but I’m still squirming my way through the scarcity mindset, just starting to taste the fresh air on the other side ❤

I understand how you feel. But a little goes a long way, and makes a big impact. Enjoy the heck out of them!! 👏🌷

I love the smooching technique! 😂 My favorite colors of ink are Peacock Feathers, Victorian Velvet, Dried Marigold, Bundled Sage, Vintage Photo and walnut Stain. I have others but don’t use them as often. ❤

Might I suggest Lost Shadow, Scorched Timber, Weathered Wood, Spun Sugar, Wild Honey and Speckled Egg for additional Distress Oxides to explore.

Vintage photo and tea dye for sure! I also used saltwater taffy and shaded lilac a lot. Really love the oxides 💕

Thanks for this fun video. It’s so helpful to see inside your process with such candor. I like Brushed Corduroy because it shifts a lot.

Lost Shadow and Speckled Egg would be my suggestions for additional distress oxides.

On the other purple page circles, you could mix swirls on them and they would look like roses, but you could use parts of them and cut them to make flowers like in the corners to use some of that white space??

You did a great job! The only oxides I have are vintage photo and brushed corduroy and then in ink I have frayed burlap and rusty hinge. As you can see, I like the browns. I'm pretty sure scorched timber and tea dye are my bext oxides and then I'll get versafine clair fallen leaves. TFS 😊

I felt your pain with the purple circles. When I venture far from my comfort zone I don’t have fun and rarely like what I’ve done. I like to be comfortable!😂 That envelope is perfection! Look at Distress Oxide Bundled Sage-seems a perfect fit for your color palette.❤

I loved the soft watercolor page. It was simple & very pretty. The envelope page was totally lost on me. Though, I like the ray idea.

Maybe cut those pink circles from the vellum and try pasting them on a book page/ other background.
