52 Week Mini Art Card/Tag Challenge
Today I received a delivery of the brand new March 2020 released stamps from Lavinia Stamps.
As soon as I had stroked them and catalogued them on my spread sheet, I set to work making this tag.
For the background colour, I used a wash of PaperArtsy "Caribbean Sea" chalk acrylic paint.
Once dry, I stamped the Lavinia Stamps "Fairy Bonnet Set" in Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink. I used the same ink to edge the tag and to stamp the sentiment.
I coloured in the bonnet flowers using "Blueprint Sketch" Distress Oxide Ink, applied with a paint brush. I used the same ink through the Funky Fossil "Micro Dots" stencil. I then used a white Signo Pen to add some highlight area to the bonnets.
I think this "Fairy Bonnet" set may be my new favourite Lavinia Stamp!
It is day 21 of #thedailymarker30day colouring challenge. Today I have used a Penny Black stamp called "Balancing Act", stamped in Versafine ink and coloured with Distress Oxide Inks
I had an alcohol ink off-cut from a previous project that was too pretty to throw away, so I decided to use the Funky Fossil "Fish Background Stencil" with texture paste. I had no idea if it would take or not, fortunately it did.
I used "Peacock Feathers" Distress Oxide Ink to stamp the sentiment which is from issue 68 of Creative Stamping magazine. I then die cut the sentiment using a stitched banner die.
Today is Day 20 of #thedailymarker30day colouring challenge.
For this card, I used a stamp and sentiment which came with Issue 68 of Creative Stamping Magazine.
I stamped in Versafine "Smokey Grey" ink and coloured using water colour pencils, a Posca Pen and a glitter pen.
I stamped the sentiment using Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" ink.
I'm playing catch up as yesterday I didn't fancy creating anything. This is the card I made for Day 19 of #thedailymarker30day colouring challenge.
I've used a stamp called "Cutie-Patooties" by Little Claire Designs. Stamped in Versafine Ink and coloured with Distress Oxide Inks.
With all the awful news about the Corona Virus, I took myself off for an hour of crafting this afternoon making this card.
I've used three stencils from Funky Fossil Designs. I started by covering a piece of white card with blotches of four Distress Oxide Inks: Shabby Shutters, Bundled Sage, Crushed Olive and Mowed Lawn blended into each other.
Next, over the top of the shaded green background, I used "Hickory Smoke" Distress Oxide Ink through the Funky Fossil "Abstract Bamboo" stencil.
I used low tack masking tape to secure the Funky Fossil "Face Of Serenity" stencil in position. I then used a spatula to apply That's Crafty Black Texture Paste through the stencil. I carefully lifted the stencil off the card and set aside to dry while I washed the residue paste off the stencil.
Once dry, I then used the Funky Fossil "Micro Dots" stencil with "Evergreen Bough" Distress Oxide ink.
Finally around the edges and deeper in the corner I blended "Chipped Sapphire" Distress Oxide. I edged the card in black Versafine Clair "Nocturne" ink
Today is Day 18 of #thedailymarker30day colouring challenge.
I have used the stunning Funky Fossil stamp set called "Beautiful Inside and Out" today. Stamped in Versafine "Vintage Sepia" brown ink and coloured with a selection of Distress Oxide Inks (Spun Sugar, Victorian Velvet, Tattered Rose, Vintage Photo, Brushed Corduroy, Mowed Lawn and Crushed Olive).
