This week at Vera Lane Studio

 Hello everyone, 

For today's Vera Lane Studio post I have made a postcard with the newly release Ski-son which means (after googling, lol) Ski Season. I really do live under a rock most of the time.. 

This very simple card was made by blending yellow, orange white and blue inks. I used Distress Oxides for the colours and Hero Arts Unicorn white pigment ink. The snow is just two torn pieces of card placed over each other. I then printed the images, coloured them and cut them out. I added them to the scene; I had planned to do some stamping too, but I liked the simplicity of the background so I decided to leave it that way. I did stamp the sentiment which comes from one of Janet's stamp sets for AALL & Create called Snow Angel (#943). 

You'll find this lovely girl HERE

Life's prickly moments...

 Hello everyone, 

Welcome to my blog where today I am sharing a set of 3 ATC's that I made with some of Bipasha's new stamps and some of the older ones. 

Here's how I made this:

I started with stamping and colouring the little plants. I used watercolours this time. 

Next I made the backgrounds with my gelli plate and toning it down as always with a brayer and white paint. I then added some stencilling also with white paint. 

Some stamping in green, pink and black. 

Adding pieces of washi tape. 

The sentiment which I heat embossed with white powder. 

And here they are finished. I did add some lines around some of the edges for more interest and to frame them. 

To make sure they don't go missing (I send all my samples to AALL & Create) I mounted them on some dark grey pattern paper and then all three on some pink polka dotted paper.  I actually preferred them loose but I don't want them to disappear. 

I have used the following AALL & Create products:

 Hello everyone, 

Welcome to my blog where today I have an artjournal spread to share. I made this with the latest release by Vera Lane Studio, called Anthony and Cleopatra. 

I printed, coloured and cut the images out. I made the background with Distress Oxide Inks and a stencil by Janet Klein for AALL & Create (#187). I added some stamping and placed Cleopatra, Anthony and the sentiment on the pages. I doodled around the words and that was that !

You'll find Cleopatra and Anthony HERE

Home is my happy place

 Hello everyone, 

For today's AALL & Create project I have made a 6 x 6 card or a journal page, it could be either. 

In my social media posts you see a version with a cat in the window. I added that long after I wrote this blogpost. Just a bit of fun! 

Here's how: 

First, I selected the images I wanted to use and stamped and coloured them. I used watercolours this time, just for something different. 

The background is a gelli print made with this stencil and acrylic paint. I toned it down a little with a brayer and white paint.

I stamped the tree straight on the gelli print because it's a little difficult to cut out. I coloured it with watercolour markers and coloured pencils. 

Some background stamping.

The sentiment.

I have used the folowing products:

Stencil # 87 - Totally Dotty by Autour De Mwa

Stamps:

#489 - Wisecracks by Autour De Mwa

#1003 - Jingle Dreams by Autour De Mwa & Co

Flowers just for you

 Hello everyone, 

For this week's AALL & Create project I have made a postcard. 

Here's how:

I used this stamp to make a gelli print. First I printed the green background with just paint. I then stamped this stamp here and there on the gelli plate using Distress Oxide ink, I then put the paper back on the plate and pulled a print. Remember that if you gelli print with text, it will all be backwards in your print. I don't mind that but it is good to know. 

Next I added some heat embossing with white powder. 

and of course some more stamping. 

 Next the flower I wanted to use. I stamped it three times and coloured it and cut it out.

I lengthened the stems with strips of paper. 

I stamped the sentiment next. 

here it is, all put together! 

I have used the following stamps, all by Tracy Evans

#986 - The Good 

#993 - Vertical Stems

#992 - 30 Days

#625 - Vine

#1007 - It's Acer Officer

 Hello everyone, 

For today's Vera Lane Studio post I have made a postcard with the newly released set 'Marie Curie'. I have opted for clean and simple today, at least as c&s as it gets for me !! 

I added some stencilling to a 6 x 4 card and splashed some blue and brown ink on it. I also added some washi tape (AALL & Create by Janet) and then printed, coloured and cut Marie out. I added her to the card and that was that ! 

You'll find Marie HERE
