Distress Oxide Cards - With Scrapping Clearly!

Today I'm showing some cards I made using Distress Oxide's available in the  Scrapping Clearly Store

I wanted to experiment with how they worked so I made a few different backgrounds for my cards. Warning: these ink pads are very addictive and you will find yourself wanting every colour lol! 

For the first card I stamped the ink pads direct to my craft mat, then spritzed with water, then smooshed my card on the inks. I did this a few times, drying off between each smoosh.
 

For the next card I stamped the ink pads direct to my craft mat, then spritzed with water, then I used a paintbrush to transfer some of the watery ink to a piece of plastic, then I smooshed the plastic onto my card. I did one colour at a time and carefully directed the ink where I wanted it to go.


 After I had completed this for each ink I let it dry then I added paint splatters of each colour - trying to splatter the same colour onto the "Smooshed" section. 
Once this had dried I added some stamping using the Fancy Pants Designs Golden Days stamp set   
Here are my finished cards. I matted my background card onto some coloured card then the card base. Then I added some of additional stamped images and a sentiment from my stash.
I just loved how this card turned out - the background was so pretty I didnt want to cover it up!! 
Here is the second card - how amazing does this background look - again it was far too pretty to cover up!
