I don't mean to brag....

Hello everyone,

For today's Katzelkraft post I have made an art journal page. I think it turned out really fun!

I started with a piece of paper on which I dabbed embossing ink through a stencil and then heat embossed it with white powder. Next I used Distress Oxide to add colour. The embossing resists the ink and stays white. 

Next I stamped the Macarons and the little figure from the Les Pabos set and coloured them with Copics, I cut them out and arranged them on the page on top of some washi tape. I then spend ages to find a suitable quote. In the end I decided on this Tim Holtz snarky sticker. 

I used the following stamps:

KTZ212 - Les Pabos serie 2

KTZ199 - Five o'Clock

Wicked

Hello everyone,

For today's Vera Lane Studio post I have made two projects: an ATC and a postcard. They are both Halloween themed because it is almost that time of year !

For this ATC I used some paper I got left from last year. I coloured lil' Boo and glued him on, on top of the sentiment. I then went around the card with white paint. 

You'll find lil' Boo HERE.

The background for this postcard is a gelli print I had lying around. I printed the image, coloured her and cut her out. I adhered her onto the postcard and added a sentiment which I got from Ray Bradbury's book 'Something wicked this way comes'. A little washi tape finished it off. 

You'll find this lovely girl HERE.

Thank you for stopping by today !

Hello everyone,

for today's AALL & Create project I have made a little canvas. It measures 20 x 20 cm or 8 x 8 inches approx.

And here's how:

I planned on using these AALL & Create products but later added another stencil ! 

After painting the canvas with my fingers and rubbing away some of the paint through a stencil (#45) with a baby wipe, I added some white paint with a brayer and some modelling paste through the other stencil (#39). 

Next I used part of the stamp #109 for stamping the background here and there. 

I painted another piece of paper with yellow and stamped the flower on it, next I painted over it with gel medium because I wanted to add some colour with Big Brush Markers. You can move the colour over gel medium before it dries.. after that it is permanent. 

These are the colours that I am using...

And this is the result, I also added some white pen and white paint splatters. 

..and of course I put some splatters on the canvas too.. 

I have used :

Stamp : #109 blossomed numbers by Tracy Evans

Stencil #39 by Autour de Mwa

Stencil #45 by Autour de Mwa

Hello everyone,

Welcome to today's blogpost for Katzelkraft. I have revisited an old stamp set today because I still  love these images. I have used it to make a mini art journal spread.

I started out with collaging some tissue paper on the pages with gel medium. When this was dry I painted over everything with white gesso to knock it back a little. I then took my brayer and rolled some acrylic paints over it. I made sure I used colours that were transparent. I used a lime green and a turquoise. 

Next I stamped the background, only a little, because it was busy enough and then I stamped the sentiment on some blank tissue paper. This is a great way to get a good impression. When you glue it down using gel medium it almost disappears into the background. 

THe deer-lady was stamped on book paper and adhered with gel medium too. 

I used two stamp sets today :

KTZ141 - Les Anthropomorphes Zebra (only for the sentiment)

KTZ142 - Les Anthropomorphes Rabbit 

Thank you so much for stopping by today !
