Spring is in the air - Week 9

There are times when you envision a project and it turns out exactly and even better, this project was one such. The piece was made based on Gwen's class "Maskquerade" . It has bright background and bold colors which is not my usual style (since I tend to lean to darker colors). The butterflies were made using collage and flowers were stamped and colored. The background is pattern paper stuck on cardstock.

Texture - week 7 2021

I love to have textures made with paste and acrylic skins. I wanted to incorporate one such in my project for SimonsaysStamp Monday Challenge - Texture . The background was made using Distress oxides and inks. I added more interest using stencils and stamps using archival inks and Distress inks. The hero of the card is the texure on acrylic skin. The skin was made by giving two coats of matte medium on silicone mat. Once dry the texture paste was applied using stencil, when dried it was painted with Golden paints and highlighted using Finnabair waxes in Rose Gold and Old Gold. I made them popup more by using white posca pen. The elephant was drawn on Neenah cardstock, colored with Distress oxide in yellow and Posca pens in yellow and orange. It was cut and embellished with sequins, beads, scrap paper and liquid pearls. I hope you liked it.

Background was collaged with scrapbook papers, collage papers, images and washi tape. Crackle paste and glass beads paste was applied through stencils. I added brown and gold to blend papers in certain places and followed rest of steps from class. The patch work was done using Distress paints and then stenciled and stamped. I added mark making with posca pens and golden paints. The medallion was metal piece that w...
