Dichromatic oxide sprays

Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Ashwini has chosen dichromatic as the theme.

She'd like us to use only 2 colours, neutrals are ok but no metallics.

Of course, you can always play along with the anything goes birthday option too.

My team mates and our party guest Vicky have some wonderful cards to inspire you, so I hope you can play along.

I was a bit stumped with this one to start with and decided to look through my drawers of stamps that have had little or no use!

These feathers leapt out and I stamped them in versafine clair nocturne, then embossed them with a fine white detail powder.

Does anyone know of a white ink that can capture fine details?

 I think my ink pad needs reinking so the white embossing covered the black ok, but my sentiment is a bit pale!

Next I sprayed on some distress oxide inks in salvaged patina and antique linen, then spritzed on some water to blend things a bit more.

When dry I tried to buff over the embossed areas with a paper towel to remove the white oxide residue.

I'm linking up to these challenges:
