Hello creative friends.

I am sharing a new masculine layout as 

Design Team member for 2Crafty 

Chipboard with you all today using some of the

steampunk chipboards as well as paper and 

embellishments from the 13arts

Industrial Zone collection.

I prepared the background of my layout by 

stenciling with a combination of gel medium 

and Golden Calcite Color Glow.

Some chipboard pieces were painted with

black gesso and then lightly painted with 

the Color Glow diluted with water.

The rest of the chipboard pieces were 

painted with the Color Glow added to 

liquid acrylic medium.

Once my layout was completed, I lightly 

brushed the edges of the chipboard pieces 

with white gesso and lightly rubbed them 

with bronze wax to give them definition.

Chipboard pieces which I used on my layout include

I hope that this layout has inspired you in some way.

Let your feet wander and your eyes marvel

 

Hello creative friends.

I am sharing a new layout as Brand Ambassador for 

Penelope Dee using the beautiful new 

WILD AND FREE collection.

I prepared the background of my layout by stenciling

with a combination of gel medium and green shimmer paint,

combined with a small amount of black gesso

to deepen the colour.

The chipboard leaves were painted with sand paint, 

lightly heat embossed with Sage embossing powder 

and then rubbed with green wax.

I added the leaves, together with elements 

from the cut-out sheets to frame my photograph.

I hope that this layout has inspired you. 

You shine

 

Hello creative friends.

I am sharing a new project for 13arts with you all today,

a mixed media wooden canvas as inspiration for the 

June Mood Board Challenge on Instagram.

For this project, I used papers and embellishments 

from the steampunk INDUSTRIAL ZONE collection.  

I love the elements of this collection which are 

perfect for this month's mood board.

I prepared the background of my project by adhering 

paper from the collection onto my canvas and 

giving it a good coating of clear gesso.

I then stenciled onto the edges my canvas of my 

canvas with gel medium and then added Rusty 

Bronze Powder to the gel medium while it was wet, 

shaking off all of the excess powder.

I then added the Reagent to the powder allowing 

it to turn the powder into a rust effect and 

left it to dry completely.

I also combined Golden Calcite Color Glow

powder to gel medium and stenciled around the 

edges of my canvas, dragging some of the product 

along the edges with my spatula.

Resin embellishments were painted with Golden Calcite 

as well as Andalusite Color Glows combined with 

liquid acrylic medium.

Gel medium, Rusty Bronze Powder as well as Reagent 

were also added to the bottom of the bulb as well as 

some of the resin embellishments.

Chipboard embellishments were painted with 

Andalute Color Glow combined with liquid acrylic medium 

to give them the silver/brown effect.

Once everything had been adhered to my canvas,

I gave most of the embellishments a light 

dry brush of white gesso.

I hope that this project has inspired to create 

one of your own for this month's 13arts challenge.

Hello creative friends.

I am sharing a new layout as Brand Ambassador for Penelope Dee

using the gorgeous new MEMOIRS collection.

I love the greens botanicals combined with 

the pink flowers in this collection.  So very pretty!

I prepared the background of my layout by 

layering papers from the collection and then 

adhered them to the left side of my base page.

I stenciled onto my layout with a combination of 

two different embellishment mousses, allowing 

the product to dry completely.

Chipboard elements were painted with pink paint.

I layered embellishments from the cut-out sheet 

together with flowers around my photograph 

to create depth.

I hope that this layout inspires you to create one 

of your own with these beautiful products.
