A Girly Card - well sort of.. by Debs

Hi Everyone, I hope you are all enjoying the sun as much as i am.

With the sun, comes nice and bright cheery colours and i really made the most of them on this card.

I used some watercolour paper as my substrate and added dark and light pink, and orange paints randomly over each other until i was happy, making a few circles of paint with my fingers as i went along.  I used Amsterdam paints but any acrylic will work.

Over the top of the main body of pain i stamped the mini hexagon and dots background stamps using both pink paints

and black ink.  I also popped some paint through a couple of stencils as well, and then did the same thing over a small tag.  Before i painted the tag i added some of the wonderful washi tape that is currently in stock. I also used an old credit card with the light pink to add some marks and also  using the calligraphy mat 11 stamped with the light pink paint.

I finished off the tag by adding Trish Latimers World Girl One and used the same colours to colour her in.

I shall look forward to seeing your creations after all there is still a week left so plenty of time, if you haven't entered already!

Happy crafting

A little late - Debs

Hi Everyone

I hope you are all ready for Christmas, i am not quite there yet, as you may have guessed, getting behind with everything at the moment!!   Here is a seasonal journal page to help you feel a bit more Christmassy if you are not already!!

I had started this page some time ago, playing with some blue and white acrylic paints, it was crying out for something frosty looking.

I stamped the large snowflake from the jewelled snowflake set with versa mark and embossed with wow silver embossing powder.  I then stamped the new snowflake background stamp, with Picket Fence Distress Ink around the edge of the page.  Then stamped the Noel and Seasons Greetings from the Christmas Greeting #1 set with Black Archival.

The final part was to get out the silver and white gel pens.  I coloured the Noel and Seasons greetings with the silver and then added white on the tops of the letters to look like snow had settled on them.  then coloured the snowflakes in with the white pen.

Happy creating

Debs
