Summer

 

Hello creative friends.

I am sharing another single layout as 

Brand Ambassador for Penelope Dee using the 

beautiful new TIDAL FLORALS collection.

I prepared the background of this layout by 

stenciling onto my main page, around my 

centre composition, with crackle mousse, 

leaving it to dry so that the cracks would form.

I layered cut-outs and flowers to 

frame my photograph.

Thanks for stopping by.

Memories

Hello to all my creative friends.

I am sharing a new layout as Design Team member 

for 2Crafty Chipboard with you all today.

I prepared the chipboard leaves by painting them 

with a bronze paint and then lightly brushing 

them with a turquoise paint.

The chipboard Mandala doily was painted with 

turquoise paint and then lightly brushed 

with bronze paint.

I painted both the arrow and title 

with bronze paint.

I also added rub-ons to my main page

to complete my layout.

I hope that this layout has inspired you.

Thanks for stopping by.

 

Take time to smell the roses

 

Hi everyone.

I am sharing my new layout as Design Team 

member for 13arts with you all today using 

paper and embellishments from the 

ROSE IN LOVE collection.

I love the soft pink and blues in this collection.  

I use these papers a lot so it is definitely 

a favourite of mine!

I prepared the background of my layout by 

stenciling leaves onto the floral sections with 

modeling paste.  I then combined Turquoise 

and Blue Saphire Color Glows with 

modeling paste to create a soft blue and 

stenciled around the edges of my layout, 

dragging the colour onto the background 

with a spatula.

I painted all chipboard embellishments with 

white acrylic ink.

I cut my title from the velum sheet.

I layered all flowers, cut-outs and chipboards 

around my photograph and onto the edge 

of my layout.

I hope that this layout inspires you.

Down by the sea

Hello creative friends.

I am sharing a new layout as Brand Ambassador 

for Penelope Dee with you all today using 

the new TIDAL FLORALS collection.

I tore different papers from the collection and 

layered these onto the base page of my layout.

I painted the coral chipboard piece with 

black gesso and applied sticky glue to it.  I then 

added silver gilding flakes to the sticky glue, 

brushing off the excess with a hard brush.

I added stenciling to my layout 

with silver metallic wax.

Chipboard pieces were dry brushed 

with black gesso.

Chipboard words on my layout were also 

lightly heat embossed with silver 

embossing powder.

Splashes of white ink 

completed my layout.

I hope that this layout inspires you.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Dream

Hello creative friends

I am sharing a new layout as Design Team member for 13arts

created as inspiration for the October Mood Board Challenge.

This is a fun way to explore different colours/themes

 that you might not always choose and so give you 

an opportunity to venture out of your comfort zone.

Be inspired by this new mood board, 

create a project of your own and then submit it onto 

INSTAGRAM only using the #13artsOct22.  

There is an amazing prize for the winner 

who will also be invited to Guest Design for 13arts.

I created a canvas as inspiration for this challenge using 

13arts mixed media products and mediums.

I coloured the base of my canvas with Amber 

Color Glow combined with Liquid Acrylic Medium 

and then, once the product was dry, I stamped around the edges 

and then stenciled with a combination of 

Tiger Eye Color Glow mixed with gel medium, 

dragging the product along the edges of my

canvas with my spatula.

Once the stenciling was dry, I added a combination of 

Amber and Garnet Color Glows together and applied

the colour through the centre of my canvas, 

around the stenciled face.

The resin dragonfly was painted with Tiger Eye Color Glow 

and then lightly rubbed with a wax which I made 

from a clear wax and Bronze Shiny 

Powder from 13arts.

I also rubbed the wax around the edges of my canvas.

I hope that this project has inspired you to 

participate in this month's challenge.
