This week at Vera Lane Studio

 Hello everyone, 

I have 2 projects to share today, both for Vera Lane Studio. It is a journal page and a postcard. 

This AJ page was made with a gelliprint from my stash. I added white embossing with an AALL & Create background stamp and then put this nerdy girl on the top. I added some of Janet's new washi tape (AALL & Create) and a small talk sticker. 

You'll find this girl in the set called 'Specs Appeal' HERE

This postcard was made with one of the Flowergirls from the 'Flower girls' collage set. I made the background by dunking a piece of paper into Distress Oxide ink and water. I used Spices Marmalade and Ripe Persimmon. I then brayer-ed over white paint. I added some of Janet's new washi tape (AALL & Create) and some small talk stickers. 

You'll find these lovely girls HERE.

Thank you for stopping by today !

Embrace beautiful chaos..

Hello everyone,

I have made a set of three ATC's using France Papillon's Birdy stamp. It was a quick project and I used almost the same method as the art journal page I made for UmWow Studio (also on my blog today) . I really loved the result and this was the perfect little project to repeat the process.. Instead of a chipboard I used modelpaste...

I think they turned out really nice. They were made with Mixed Media paper; I added model paste and after that was dry, some watered down acrylic paint by PaperArtsy. I used a Stabilo All pencil to add the black. I then stamped the background with France's Vintage Bill Stamp and added the birds which I stamped on tissue paper. That's how I could turn the middle one around. Lastly I added a Small Talk sticker by Tim Holtz which I cut into three parts.

Thank you so much for stopping by today !!!

Trust your crazy ideas

Hello everyone, 

I have made this postcard with the Dancer set from Vera Lane Studio... Isn't that cat cute !!! I made a 'wall' from book paper and drew the little canopy on white card stock to put above the door. I finished off with washi tape and a Tim Holz Small Talk sticker.

I used the new Just Dance set :

You will find it HERE

Embrace the journey

Hello everyone,

Today I have an art journal spread to share.

A little while back I won a die to make a Christmas ornament in a give away by Monika Gulya's and although I like the idea I always try to use my stash in different ways. So in this journal I have used three die cuts from the die that I won.

I started out with die cutting three of the Christmas Ornaments and glued them on my pages with Gel Medium. I then used Distress Crayons to colour the pages. After I had finished I rubbed the ornaments with a wet cloth to make them more visible. I then stamped and stencilled the background using Tim Holtz stamps and stencils.  I chose the old man for my main image because I think he must have travelled a lot in his life and fitted the sentiment I chose fabulously ! 

After gluing him down I added a little shading under him to make sure he wasn't floating. 

Thank you so much for stopping by today.
