Happy life

Hello everyone,

and welcome to my weekly Katzelkraft post. I have made a postcard this time.

The background was made with alcohol inks. I just put them on some Yupo paper and then put some blending solution over the top and blew the colours around using a straw. 

When the ink had mostly dried I added some foil in gold. It sticks to the bits that haven't quite dried and the effect is great I think. You can see it better in the photo below. 

Next I stamped the dog, the balloon and the string. The balloon and the dog were stamped both on the card and on white card stock, the string just on the card. I coloured the images with Copic markers, cut them out and adhered them to the card. 

The sentiment is a very old rub on from Tim Holtz. I was amazed it still worked ! lol 

I also added some 'ground' under the dog with a marker and that finished the postcard. 

I used the following stamps:

KTZ161 - Les Chiens

KTZ205 - Ballons

Thank you for stopping by !

I am home...

Hello everyone,

welcome to my blogpost for UmWow Studio. I totally love the Tiny Houses Mash chipboards and couldn't resist using them again... I made three ATC's on Yupo Paper and made the background with alcohol inks.

I have left the chipboard in its natural form as I like how this looked. 

After the alcohol background had dried I applied some gold foiling. I saw Vicki Papaioannou do this on YouTube but I didn't have as many sticky areas on the ATC's... It was also alsmost impossible to photograph.. but what you do is apply foil to areas that have lots of ink. These areas stay very sticky and are a good base for foiling..

I also added one stamp to ground the houses on and some gold coloured washitape. 

You can just see the gold foil in the top left corner... 

I have used these chipboards:

You will find them HERE.

Thank you so much for stopping by today !
