Capture the Magic by Kerstin

by Kerstin-Inga Peters | 0 comments

Hi crafty friends!

I’m  a big fan of mixed media projects, you can mixed so many various materials such like this wonderful chipboards, spray colours, textured, fabric and old book paper leftovers, stencils, stamps and cutting dies – always a lot of possibilities.

I upcycle a wooden house into a new home decoration piece.

I was inspired from the phrase and cool looking eyes on the transparency, very suitable for a new gift in industrial grunge style.

I used these Scrap FX products:

 Paintbrush Corner

Black and White butterflies 

Vision phrase transparency

Door plates and handles

some details

 a very cool embossing powder ‘Hammered metal’  just right for the
Door plates and handles

  Paintbrush Corner painted with acrylic colours (black, silver, Quinacridone Gold) and copper embossing powder

 A wise and important saying!

 Black and White butterflies    glued with 3D effect glue.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Here is the second inspiration, a canvas with a lot of stain and splatters

– CAPTURE THE MAGIC –

yes, that is always my aim when I create projects 🙂

Paintbrush Jar

String of Arrows 

Black and White butterflies 

Butterflies stencil

Capture the Magic

Splat stencil

Dream transparency

some details:

Paintbrush Jar – brushes with brown and silver embossed powder and some black painted accents

in the jar crackle clear glaze (DecoArt), this looks like water

I use the Butterflies stencil   as background with with gesso.

Have you seen the Transparencies from Scrap FX ?! always very suitable for every theme.

12×12 layout and a tag by Lynn Good

by Lynn Good | 0 comments

Good morning – Lynn here today to share with you two creations – a tag and an 12 x 12 layout.  Firstly the tag:

I began by randomly gluing down some tissue paper and then using the Triangles Pentagons Stencil and white crackle paste.

Once this was dry I have added some colour using a Stabilo All black pencil and water.

I have then coloured the chipboard using Finnabair paints and mixing some of the paint with glass bead gel.  I have used gelatos on the outside of the tag to draw the eye back into the focal point.

The saying is from word stickers by Flutterbys.

Triangles Pentagons Stencil

Paint Brushes and Jar

The second project I have today is a layout showing a photo of my two boys – the saying is so very much applicable!

I have used 7 Dots Collection – Northern Lights for the paper.  I have applied Colour Blast Pastes through the The Cool Circle Stencil.

The Arrow chipboard pieces have been painted in white paint

The title has been painted with black Dina Wakely paint

Scrap FX Products Used:

Special Times

Cool Circles Stencil

String of Arrows

Vision Transparency

Thanks for stopping by and til next time – Happy Crafting 🙂

First up is a layout I created back in May of 2013 “Good Times Together”

The title had just been released and I loved it, it was perfect for this layout, this is still a favourite title…

I really had fun creating this layout, and spent loads of time playing with the background to get it just right, and set the whole thing off with the delicate touches of the gorgeous chippy ruffled feather…

On this layout I also used one of the newly released flourishes and one of the newly released “midi” titles that I just adore!! Don’t you just love the texture from that Random Circles Stencil!!

Colour outside the lines

by Kate Dachovska | Comments Off on Colour outside the lines

Hi,

I would like to share with you really colorful canvas, I stepped outside far far away from my confort zone and I tried to make something little bit crazy. But why not craziness in art can be great relax.

How to: Cover whole canvas with white gesso, through any ScrapFX stencil apply any kind of structure paste, dry after each step.

Take different washi tapes and glue it here and there and lightly cover them with gesso.

Take ScrapFX stamps and different Distress oxide inks and stamp all over canvas, just let borders white.

Glue main photo, colour chipboards, glue them and make tons of splatters.

Have a nice day

Kate Dachovska

material:

• white gesso, Plaster paste, stencil, Distress oxide inks – Candied apple, Spiced marmalade, Squeezed lemonade, Black soot, Stormy sky

ScrapFX

Triangles stamp

Crazy circles stamp

Paintbrush jar

Capture the Magic by Renee Aslette

by Renee Aslette | Comments Off on Capture the Magic by Renee Aslette

Hello Lovelies,

This month’s new release is the perfect opportunity to create art!!

So with that in mind I created a layout, about me, incorporating all that I love.  Bright Colours and my favourite Scrap FX products.

This layout is me in a nutshell.

I used lots of new releases, American Crafts – Shimelle – Box of Crayons Collection and some Colour Blast – Colour Artist Inks.

Here are some close-ups:

I used the Capture the Magic title chipboard.  I inked the Capture and Ink words with a Black Ink Pad.

Then I used white gesso on the Magic, allowed it to dry and then painted on the Colour Blast Artist Inks.

You can also see the Heart Mini Flower Chipboards which have just been stamped with Black Ink.

Here you can see the gorgeous Black & White Butterflies cut outs, I have used one either side of the photo, but these come in a pack on 6.

I cut out the Keep on Dreaming from the Teen Advice Transparency.

These are the products I used on today’s layout.

Thanks so much for stopping by. xx

art journal page… by Lynn Good

by Lynn Good | Comments Off on art journal page… by Lynn Good

Hi everyone, today I would like to share an art journal page that I have created using the stencil masks.

I have created a number of pages with these masks – I find them fun and creative.

I have began by adding colour to my page – the “ugly” stage.  I have used Paper Artsy paints and Dina Wakley Paints.

Once that was dry, I have then added some Flutterby Paint lines and splashes.

I have then laid the masks where I wanted them and using a triangle makeup sponge I have dabbed around the mask with heavy black gesso.

Once this was dry, I have used the Art stencil and white paint for the saying.  I have gone around the edge of the “art” word with a black posca pen.

I have gone in with a white paint pen and doodled around the images and added some splashes of white and black ink.

I have then embossed the title with Lindy Stamp Gang Embossing powder.

Here are some close ups:

Scrap FX Products Used:

Capture the Magic

Modern Girl Stencil
