Surprising Journey (Picture tutorial)

Hello friends! Hope you are having a fantastic day! Today, I am sharing with you a tutorial I made for eclectic Paperie, I used Twinkling H2O paints, but you can use any kind of paints you own.

Let's get started!

I started with a piece of Strathmore Mixed Media paper, cut the paper 9" x 9", then taped it to my mat with Blue Tape (painter's tape), the sides are 1" and the top/bottom are .75"

 
 Added a couple of coats of White Acrylic Gesso
 
 
 Then I started painted this piece with Luminarte Twinkling H2O African Jade, just one coat is enough.
 
 
 
 Then I added paint strokes of Luminarte Twinkling H2O Rich Cobalt
 
 
 More strokes of Luminarte Twinkling H2O Hot Cinnamon
 
 
 and some of Twinkling H2O Ginger Peach
 
 
and finally some of Twinkling H2O Olive Vine. 
 
 
I added some Embossing paste using the Mini Chicken Wire reversed Stencil, but honestly I didn't like it, I removed it immediately with a baby wipe, but it left a really cool impression, ha! The things you discover from your mistakes. Then added few dabs using Snow Cap Acrylic Paint Dabber
 
 
 
 I used an old stencil (no longer available, sorry) and White embossing paste in random places.

 
 
Then added White Gelatos in the center and a little bit around the edges,
 
 
Added Black Gelatos around the edges of the whole piece.
 
 
 
Then I took my Remant Rubs - Word (Tim Holtz), cut few pieces and added them on my piece.
 
 
Looks like this :) 
 
 
 
And this is the final piece, without the blue tape, the picture doesn't show how shimmery this piece is, it's really beautiful!! I think I will put it in a picture frame to decorate my craft room :)
  



I hope you like it!!
Have a wonderful day.

XOXOXO Handbag

Hello friends!! Hope you are having a great day, whether you celebrate Valentine's Day or not, hope your day is a good one.

Today, I want to show you a quick and simple way to embellish your Z Becky Brown handbag. I used Ziva Sundance Kraft inserts, cut out Patterned Paper panels from Craft n Craftin' "Sweet Love", traced the panel onto the patterned paper then cut .5" from each side, cut a strip of the same paper but opposite side XOXOXO, matted them with a bigger piece of Kraft Cardstock, added Adhesive White lace. I painted wings and a heart with Metallic paint and added them to the center. I die-cut cute double hearts and arrows and added them to the sides. The final touch was adding lines around the edges with a White pen.

    February Release Blog Hop Day 3: Inspirational Word Art 1

    Welcome to DAY 3 of our February Release Blog Hops!

     

    Today the DT is thrilled to share the new Inspirational Word Art 1 with you.  This 4"x6" set includes 6 inspiring sentiments that are sure to encourage any recipient and go nicely with any stamps you already own.  This set is the first in it's series!
      
     
    • Key sentiment measures approximately 1.75" x 2"
    •  Designed by Korin Sutherland
    • Stamp set is $15

    This is the project I have for you, a little bit of shabby chic goodness. This card is actually pretty simple. I started with a White card base. Cut a panel from patterned paper, inked and distressed all edges. Die-cut a doily from white cardstock and a frame in 2 colors. Stamped the sentiment in Coffee Archival Ink, added pieces to panel, added a banner, paper flower, resin flower and jute twine, a couple of pearls and your card is done :)

    I, again, got inspired by The Paper Poppy February Sketch and the Card Concept Challenge: Monochromatic Pink
