An ATC duo for Katzelkraft

Hello everyone,

for today's Katzelkraft project I have made a set of two ATC's. I am not into horses but I love these stamps of horses by Katzelkraft. So, today i decided to use them again !



The background of the ATC's was made with a gelli plate and acrylic paints. Because there was some purple in it I decided to do the shading on the horses with a purple coloured pencil. I think it turned out great !  I used a white pen to splatter and to add some lines along the edges and the sentiment are from Tim Holtz. 

I have used stamp set:

This week at Vera Lane Studio

Hello everyone,

Happy Thursday and welcome to my blogpost for Vera Lane Studio. For today I have made a postcard with the newly released 'Bee and Butterfly' and a card with an older image called 'Elodie' and a sentiment from the 'Back to Back sentiment sheet'. Here's the first one:


I used one of my gel prints for this postcard, they are so very handy to have. The girl image was coloured with pencils, the bees were an afterthought so I coloured those with Copic Markers because that is a little quicker. I added some washitape, a clippings sticker and some doodling. 

You'll find 'Bee and Butterfly' HERE



This card was made with a piece of watercolour paper. I used a stencil and Distress Oxide Ink to print the circles. Elodie was coloured with pencils, cut out and adhered on the panel after I put some washitape, design paper and the sentiment down. 

You'll find Elodie HERE
You'll find the sentiment sheet HERE

Trio of ATCs

Hello everyone,

today's project is a trio of ATC's that I made for AALL & Create. I won't explain to much because there is a VIDEO ! yay! If you like my video's then please subscribe to my channel so I can keep on making videos.
I challenged myself to use only one stamp set because it is so easy to use lots ! I think it worked out well and I really enjoyed the process.


I have a few step by step photos too:


I made a gel print..


Cut the paper into ATC sized pieces and put them back together with tape while I was working on them.










Here is the video where you can see how this came together.

Adventure awaits

Hello everyone,

welcome to my post for VivaLasVegaStamps! and this time I have indulged in my latest favourite thing which is clean and simple with watercolours and coloured pencils... I have made a postcard :


The process was simple, I stamped the Dee and Dum and watercolored them with my newly acquired watercolours by Winsor & Newton. I then added shading with coloured pencils. I also used the watercolours to splatter around them. 
I added the sentiment and some scraps of Design paper and that was that ! 




I have used two stamps:


Other materials:

Watercolour paper
Artist watercolours by Winsor & Newton
Caran d'Ache Pablo pencils
Scraps of design paper
Versafine Clair ink in 'nocturne'

A penny for your thoughts

Hello everyone,

Today's Katzelkraft project is a mini journal page. I bought some new watercolours on holiday and I had to try them out; I love them.  They are professional watercolours by Winsor & Newton. I bought 14 colours and will buy more !

Anyway, here's my journal page :



I stamped the animals and masked the monkey, then stamped the table. I then coloured them and added a snarky sticker by Tim Holtz. 

I have used the following stamps:

I've got it all together

Hello everyone,

and happy August to you all ! At Country View Challenges a new challenges has started today and the theme is 'Texture'. What a great theme; I hope you play along with us because you can win a £20 voucher! How great would that be?
You can add texture in a lot of ways like texture paste but also visual texture with, for instance, stamping. I used a bit of both. I have filmed the process as usual so if you'd like to see how I made this then follow the link at the bottom...







If you'l like to see me make this then you'll find the YouTube video HERE or 
you can click on the pic :




I will be back soon with more inspiration !

Thank you for stopping by today ! 

This week @Vera Lane Studio

Hello everyone,

For this week's DT post I have made 2 more postcards. I really like making postcards, they are small and easy to do. Also nice to send to people !



This cute girl is from the 'Flower Lover' set and I coloured her with coloured pencils. She was placed on a gel printed piece of paper and I added some Tim Holtz words for a sentiment. 
You'll find this lovely little girl HERE



This postcard is made with another gelli print, some washi tape and the pigs and bird are from the 'Sweet Dreams' collage sheet that was released this week. I used a sentiment from the Back To Back sentiment sheet. 

These cute piggies are to be found HERE
