Mécanique

Hello everyone,

For my DT post for Katzelkraft today I have made a masculine card. I have great trouble with cards for men but I quite like this one.

I used a gelli printed background and did some randome stamping. I then used the gear stamp and stamped it with Flitter flu by Indigoblu as I wanted to use their Megaflakes. The colour I used is Royal Peacock and in the tub you'll find copper/gold/teal/silver gilding flakes. I think it is fab but it makes a terrible mess ! lol

Anyway, after I was happy with the background I stamped the gentleman on a piece of Pattern paper and did the same with the sentiment. I inked the edges of the pieces of paper and of the card panel with Distress Ink. Next I adhered the pieces to the card and added an American postage stamp just for fun ! The panel was then adhered to a black mat and to a white card. 

I used the following stamps :

Solo 13 (gears)

Shine bright ! a new VIDEO !!

Hello everyone,

and welcome to my blog where today I have another art journal page to share. This one is for Visible Image. 
I had this idea of using some of the foil you see everywhere these days and used it with a glue that is made for this so, you guessed it, it didn't work ! Duh.... But I think I rescued the page and I actually like it. Instead of painting my background I used a piece of pattern paper by 7 Dots Studio today.

I have used the following stamps for this :

One layer card

Hello everyone,

Today I have made a card to play in the IndigoBlu 'Just One Layer' Challenge. I used two of my new stamp(sets). It was so much fun colouring the girl...

This challenge was quite far out of my comfort zone as 'One Layer' is not something I practise often ! lol

Here it is:

I stamped "Lost in thought" on a card stock panel first, then masked her and used the "Limor Circles" set randomly around her with different Distress Inks. I then coloured in the girl and when I finished colouring I adhered the panel to a white card blank. 

Thanks for stopping by ! 

Spring nap

Hello fellow Crafters,

Today I have a card to share that I made for the March challenge over at Indigoblu. The theme is Sping Greens. I thought it would be a nice idea for George to have a nap in the grass while he is enjoying the Spring sunshine !

I stamped George first and masked him and then stamped the grass. I coloured these with colour pencils. I then stamped the tree and then used Distress Inks and a blending tool to colour the background. Next I also used some colour pencils to accentuate bits of the tree. I also restamped the little bird on the tree stamp a few more times. Lastly I stamped the butterflies with Distress Inks in the same colours as the background. 

I used the following stamps:

Nature 1

Sleeping George
