Art journal page by Titbelsoeur

Hello everybody !
I made this AJ page last month during the lock-down, during a Debs Smith's facebook live, and it appeared that the sentiment from her collection was so meaningful. I had stamped it on a piece of masking tape. I have also found an old gel plate stamped butterfly in my leftovers. Then I stamped Floral open background here and there with various ink colours, and Peony on a bit of an envelope.

Hope it gives you inspiration to participate in our

Steampunk tag by Titbelsoeur

Hi this is Titbelsoeur today.
A big tag to give you inspiration for our Steampunk challenge.

I have used a big tag and glued old papers on it. Stamped it with Gears Background and the rule from the Ephemera 1 plate. Used a cloth tag, an old photo and ancient poststamp and frame.

Here is a snapshot on the steampunk butterfly from Butterflies 2 , body made with a safety pin painted in black and wire as antennas :

The 2 tags of last week's post have found their place on this big one :

Art Journal page by Titbelsoeur

Hello everyone, how about an art journal page for today ? Here is how I made it :
- brushed a slight coat of gesso to avoid the inks to spread to the other pages, then applied acrylic paint with a brush and played with my brush for various textures,
- threw some alcohol ink drops here and there to have some transparency
- stamped some background stamps,
- stuck papers, book page bits, images,butterfly  stamped images and real stamps, and the sentiment that was stamped on to a notebook page... with gel medium, 
- then wrote some words with a white pen.

And here is my page :

The stamps I used are :

Butterflies 2 size A5

Thank you tag by Titbelsoeur

Hello there, I want to show you today a Thank-You tag I have made for a friend of mine who reads a lot of books. I have first stamped this beautiful Butterfly from Butterflies 2 size A5 on the piece of paper I had first coloured in pink with Distress ink. Then I stamped Artifacts - Thank you Text with various Archival inks. When I have sticked the paper to the tag, I have embossed the Butterfly on the edges.

I hope my tag gives you inspiration to participate in our

Shaving foam background by Titbelsoeur

Hello crafters !
I have told you on the September Challenge post that I would show you my backgrounds made with shaving foam.
The technique is very simple and I like to get back to fundamentals from time to time ! You will find a lot of tutorials on Pinterest or using your web browser search tool.
Here is the page I have coloured with this technique, cut in 6 parts to make a mini-album :

And here it is, front page, 2 double pages and back page :

Canvas by Titbelsoeur

Hello everyone,
To make this altered canvas, I  first cut and corrugated cardboard pieces, then I applied gesso with my fingers, sprayed some ink and stamped Ephemera 1 A5 with black ink :

Then I added some ink on pieces of fabric and stamped garden tools, bees, butterfly and mushroom with black Archival ink. I also glued tissue paper on to my canvas and added some white gesso on it. Then sticked fabric on to cardboards and cardboards on to the canvas. 

Snapshots :

Here is the finished piece :
