Stay focused on your journey

Hello everyone, 

Welcome to my blog where today I am sharing a card that I made with mostly Bipasha Bk products by AALL & Create. 

Here is how I made this:

First, I cut out a card with a mat with Die #34. The card is cut from Design paper the mat is white card stock. I didn't have the right colour so I used white card which I will colour with ink. 

I used Distress Oxide Ink in Walnut Stain which I applied with a blending tool. 

After I toned the card down with acrylic paint and a brayer I added some stamping using Distress Ink Tattered Rose (I used Distress Ink because I didn't have any other ink in the right colour), Versafine Clair in Nocturne and Acorn. 

Because I wanted to use my watercolour paints I stamped the focal images in Versafine Clair because that is waterproof after drying. 

I made another mat, this time for the sentiment which came from set #1225 Lens & Lines. Again I used a blending tool and Distress Oxide ink in Walnut Stain. 

I kept the colours quite dark and earthy. I wanted to give the card a vintage vibe. 

Adding some washi tape #15 - Twine for a little more interest.

I added some more colour to everything with coloured pencil and then splattered white paint from a paint pen on the images here and there and then arranged everything on the card. When I was happy I glued everything down using liquid glue and some dimensional tape.

This week at Vera Lane Studio

 Hello everyone! 

Happy Thursday and happy Halloween. For today's Vera Lane Studio project I have made another Memory Dex card. I have used Emily Anne's Halloween for this one. 

I die cut the Memory dex card out of an already coloured piece of card. I just added white paint though a stencil and some stamping. I printed Emily Anne and the sentiment, moon and cloud and coloured them with Copic Markers and a tiny bit of coloured pencil. I added splatters and a piece of washi tape to stand her on; I then glued everything down. 

You'll find Emily Anne's Halloween HERE.

Something completely different

 Hello everyone, 

Welcome to my blog where today I am sharing a round card I made with a stamp from the recently released Circus Collection by Janet Klein. I really love this collection, I think it is my all time favourite by Janet. Anyway, here it is:

Here is how:

I cut out a card with Die #38. I used watercolour paper. 

Later I used the bigger circle to cut out a black mat. 

I stamped Clown Dee #1207 and coloured her with Copic Markers. I then cut her out. 

I coloured the background by smearing Distress Oxide Ink pads over the paper and then spreading the colour with a watercolour brush and water. I then used the same inks to add stars with stencil #126. I used Spiced Marmalade, Fossilized Amber, Twisted Citron and Peeled Paint. 

After I toned it down with white paint and a brayer, I added splatters with a white paint pen and some stamping. I used the same Distress Inks and a Versafine Clair in black. 

I couldn't resist to add some Rub-ons. I used sets #12 and #8. 

After I added some pieces of washitape #23, I decided the background was ready for Dee. 

and there she is! She is so cool! I added a sentiment from the same stamp set #1207. 

I have used:

Die #38 - Counting Circles

Stencil #126 - Lotza Starz by Autour De Mwa

Rub-ons:

#12 - Coffee Numberistic by Autour De Mwa & Co

#8 - Enchanting Larking by Autour De Mwa & Co

Happy Thursday! For today's Vera Lane Studio project I have made a journal page. It measures 6 x 6 inches and features the newly release set 'Good witch, bad witch'. 

I gelli printed the background with acrylic paints and a stencil. When this was done I added white paint to tone it down and also some stamping. The good witch was printed, coloured and cut out. I also used some of Janet's ephemera by AALL & Create and a die. 

The image was coloured with Copic Markers. 

You'll find 'Good witch, bad witch HERE or HERE.

31

 Hello everyone, 

For this week's AALL & Create project I have made one more Halloween project. I have had enough now! Lol, it isn't even celebrated in Holland! 

Here's how I made it:

I couldn't work as I always work with these stamps because the Frightful Manor is impossible to cut out. So are the trees. That's why I started with stamping a scene on watercolour paper using stamps #1237 and #1232. I used Versafine ink because I wanted to use watercolours. 

Next I cut out '31' from die set #38 because Halloween is on the 31st of October.

I watercoloured the scene and the numbers, this took me quite a long time. 

Next I added some stencilling with stencil #59 and some coloured pencil here and there to add some accents and shading.

I also added stamping using stamp sets #1162 and #1110 and inks that matched the background.

Next: rub-ons from set #12. 

I also added some washi tape #21 and some doodling along the edges.  I glued the number on and added some white highlights here and there. Lastly I splattered some acrylic paint on it using Posca pens in white and purple. I added a black mat. 

I have used:

Die #38 - Counting Circles 

Rub-ons #12 - Coffee Numberistic by Autour De Mwa & Co

Washi tape #21- Beach Rock by Janet Klein

Stencil # 59 - Weathered Tiles by Autour De Mwa

Stamps:

#1232 - Gang Avenue by Autour De Mwa & Co

#1110 - Time Heals All by Autour De Mwa & Co

#1237 - Frightful Manor by Autour De Mwa & Co

#1162 - Cirque by Autour De Mwa & Co

A new era of imagination

 Hello everyone, 

Welcome to my blog where today I am sharing a card I made for AALL & Create. I used some of Bipasha's new Steampunk Collection for this. I really like the vintage vibe. 

Here's how I made it:

I started off with a piece of the Bipasha's Design Paper (#11). I didn't cut it down because I didn't want to lose the dark areas along the sides. 

I added some stamping with parts of stamps #1225 - #443 and #568. 

Next I added some Rub-ons from sets #5 and #12. 

I love this Ephemera #65 and glued some of that on too. It is getting busy !!!! 

I stamped the phone with the flower from set #1225 to colour and cut out. This is my focal point. 

I then put down some washi tape here and there. and some brown splatters. I also put some staples through the Ephemera. 

And here is the finished project. I like all the browns and greys because besides bright colours I also love Vintage. I should do it more often! 

I have used the following materials:

Design Paper #11 - Rusty Rhythms by Bipasha Bk

Ephemera #65 - Halo Haze by Bipasha Bk

Washi tape #39 - Scriptual by Bipasha Bk

Rub-ons:

#5 - Acid Blends by Autour De Mwa & Co

#12 - Coffee Numberistic by Autour De Mwa & Co

Stamps:

#443 - Scripted Circles by Bipasha Bk

#568 - ABCs by Bipasha Bk

#1162 - Cirque by Autour De Mwa & Co
