Faux Linen with Dawn

[simplesue1]

What a great idea and thank you for sharing!

[deettle]

Thanks for the tutorial Dawn. Does it have to be a blue ink to get a true faux linen look. Will it still look like linen if you use a different color ink?

[dawn5377]

@deettle I am sure it will look Great whatever color you pick to use :)

faux = false....it is a french word

[reynux]

Very nice!

[gbjulie]

i wonder if this would work with colored tissue paper.. i think i'm going to try it!

[Lavender23art]

Love your work Dawn! You are a very inspiring lady. for your information the word Faux roughly means fake in French, so "fake linen", but it doesn't sound so good does it?

[mooma53]

I just love this idea. Dawn, I'd like to know if the bird stamp is still available. I am a birder and so anything "birdie" is a must have!

Thanks

This is my favorite card so far!

Why couldn't we just use Mod Podge to glue it on instead of the glue stick? I always have that around but use up my glue sticfks as soon as I get them. Thanks for this idea. I am going to do it today.

[ayellessnuffelhoek]

can you use 1 layer of a regular tissue everyone has in the house?? (to blow your nose in...) instead of this tissuepaper...

[Godzoned]

I can't see why not. ;)

[Tashakcooks]

So gorgeous!!

[gbjulie]

beautiful technique! thanks for sharing!

[sandritaeaaaaa]

faux is french word for false or fake. so, it's fake (whatever youre trying to imitate)

[Aloesaloes]
