The Dragonfly by Jane

Here is another card that I have made to hopefully inspire you to join in this months challenge where the pompt is "words". I so wish you could see how vibrant this card is in real life, but as with any bling or neon colours, it is so hard to capture on a photo.

Mixed Media Magic by Jane

Mixed media...who doesn't love it!!. I love the style, I love watching people do it...actually  I spend more time watching other people doing it than I actually do it!!! So for this months challenge "Mixed Up" says mixed products and techniques, which is what I have done for my sample. I have used stamps, spray inks, stencils, gilding flakes, actually I like the effect of the gilding flakes.  I first glued up a Tracy Scott stamp and stamped the texture paste, then added the flakes, gorgeous, and I think I will be doing that technique again. I have to confess that I was making this into a journal cover, but cut it upside down so the spine was on the wrong side, so just cut the spine off, I can always cut a new journal front and glue this on the right way.

Jane's thoughts

For this months "Black and White" challenge I have decided to make a little book of thoughts, inspirational quotes, positive affirmations...stuff like that. I made the spine myself as the eileen hull spines were not long enough, this is a 6x6 book. I rounded the corners of the spine with my newest purchase, the WRMK corner chomper...I love it, my little corner rounder punch just doesn't do the job on anything thick, but these are wonderful.

Weird backgrounds by Titbelsoeur

Hello everyone !
Still testing our fabulous new Artifacts stamps, I have first stamped Treasured Memories
in the middle of my paper. Then I stamped Butterfly © Neil Walker and hid both to stamp Secret Keys  on the left side and Spirit of Adventure on the right side and add colour . I then distressed the edges and stuck it to a piece of paper that I stuck to... guess what ?

I have used the same material as a background to this tag that was published on Facebook just before the launch of Tracy Scott awesome stamps :

If you have found out what is this background made of, you may enter my giveaway for a chance to win this tag.

Tracy's Background with Lisa

Hello folks, Lisa here and welcome to my latest creation for The Artistic Stamper. This month, our theme is 'backgrounds'.

Each member of TAS Design Team are working with the new collection of Tracy Scott background stamps. I used #8 in the collection. 

I started with some white card cut to 7" square and coloured it with a couple of different yellow Distress Oxide inks.

I cut a piece of white card to 4.5" square and used a couple of red Oxides and did the same with a rectangle piece of card with orange Oxides.

I used Tracy's Background #8 stamp and stamped the three pieces of card with the Oxides. 
I also used Mini Backgrounds #1 stamp set on the yellow piece of card which I stamped using a selection of the Oxide colours. 

I adhered the red square on to the yellow background. I used foam pads to attach the orange rectangle to add some depth.

I then stamped 'hello' in the bottom right corner with the A5 Decay Alphabet lowercase stamp set.

To finish, I mounted the large background on to a white 7.5" square. 

Thanks for popping by the blog today, please leave a comment if you wish, I love to hear your thoughts.

Toodles for now,

Lisa xxx 

Here are the stamps I used... which are available on The Artistic Stamper website.
